PFF - Greetings From the North Pole



This postcard shows Santa with one of his lead reindeer, Donder, at the North Pole. The U. S. Post Office at North Pole, N. Y. is in the background. This is a vintage view. The Santa's Workshop at North Pole N. Y. website shows a different building housing the Post Office now. A special holiday cancellation is available from the North Pole Post Office from Mid-November through Mid-January. Regular North Pole cancellations are also available.

North Pole, N. Y. is not the only North Pole home of Santa. He can also be found at North Pole, Alaska and North Pole, Colorado.

  8. A great post about the various North Pole around the country, Postcardy! I love that vintage postcard...How do you know that reindeer is Donder?
    (Don't answer by saying "it looks like him.)Ha!

    Oh maybe it says it on the reverse of the card... :)

  10. I never heard of those North Poles in the states! How interesting. Wouldn't a kid love a card from Santa with that postmark?!

  12. Love the North Pole card ... and who knew Santa had "vacation homes" in the two other North Poles? My in-laws live down the road from the Reindeer Farm in Oregon ... maybe a regional HQ?
    So looking forward to spending the next few days reading up on older posts and getting more familiar with some of the blogs on your sidebar that I've not visited before, too!
    Hugs and have a happy holiday!
    Betty :)
