Vintage 1950's Freestanding Santa Claus Figure with Posable Arms - Japan - 12.5"

This is for a great Christmas decoration - a vintage 1950's Santa Claus figure that stands on his own and has poseable arms. He has his trademark red suite with white trim, mittens, boots and belt. I think the face is rubber but not 100% sure. The boots and belt are, I think, plastic. Speaking of the belt, it seems to have shrunk over the years...or Santa's been helping himself to some tasty treats when nobody's been looking, LOL. Each boot is marked JAPAN on the bottoms. I measured him around 12.5 inches tall and I've seen others out online that say both 12" and 13". He's also around 6 inches wide & 3 inches deep. I'd say he's in good shape for his age but he does have some stains on the front of his clothes. Hmmm...maybe he HAS been helping himself to some Christmas cookies...I tried to show the stains in the pictures. Please see them for more info/details.
