Jointed dolls are an ancient concept. As a folk art in the American
Appalachians and elsewhere, Dancing Sams have used the jointed idea
to create a dancing motion when moved by a vibrating board for
hundreds of years. When Tom Wolfe was visiting the British Museum
in London, he came upon an Egyptian doll that was constructed just
like the Santas in this book. The jointed Santas in this book are
delightful. They can be easily posed and made to do a variety of
things. And they are easily carved, following the step-by-step
color photo illustrations. From the carving to the joint
construction to the painting, Tom makes it easy for even the novice
to carve these Santas. The more advanced carver will also enjoy the
carving. In addition to the Santa carved in the book, there are
patterns for 8 other jointed Santas, plus a nice sleigh for Santa
to ride in. The gallery photos give perspectives on each of the
carvings, an invaluable aid to the carver.
