EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming vintage photograph, we are transported back to the 1950s at Henrys Stores in Birmingham, where a School for Father Christmases was in session. The image captures the jovial atmosphere as Dr. Any Cohen imparts his wisdom on Father Christmas and his deputies, ensuring they master the art of spreading holiday cheer. The blackboard behind them is adorned with festive decorations, serving as a backdrop for this unique educational setting. As Dr. Cohen instructs with enthusiasm, these men dressed in their iconic red suits listen attentively, ready to absorb every tip and trick that will make them exceptional Santas. Amidst the laughter and camaraderie, one cannot help but notice the humorous sight of Santa Claus himself combing his long white beard. This unexpected grooming lesson adds an endearing touch to the scene while emphasizing attention to detail and presentation. This photograph encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also emphasizes the importance of tradition during yuletide celebrations. It reminds us that even those who embody such magical figures require guidance and education to fulfill their roles effectively. Ellman's skillful capture allows us to relish in this unusual yet heartwarming glimpse into history—a testament to how teaching can transcend boundaries and bring joy during winter seasons year after year.
