The painting is a scene depicting Santa Claus Posting a Wanted Poster soliciting the skills of a Toy Maker, Candy Cook and Reindeer.

History
I aquired this issue along with several others in the same time period from a friend who passed away. This issue grabbed my attention immediatley because of Santa's promotion of the NRA. Our current culture has a wide array of outlooks on anything gun related. Emotions often fuel debates on creating laws that limit public accessibility or lessen strictness to firearm ownership.
