The painting is called "Tinker Toy" by Tom Browning. Just do a search on "Tom Browning Tinker Toy. The print is still available (16x20) I think it costs around $20. Tom Browning is best know for his Western Art and images of Santa on his day off!

I didn't know what you were talking about :confused: until I had a second look at the picture and found those little guys.

I should learn to be more observant.

Our Santa runs "INCOGNITO" in a UPS Hybrid Van & doesn't even ring the DOORBELL!---(I'll eat the COOKIES, myself!)

Thanks, me and my friends have looked at this for a long time trying to figure it out. To the best of my memory my mother gave me a gift box from Jordan marsh about 1970 because I had a model a ford and this picture was on the cover.
 
I was asked to Santa at a couple of locations for a couple of groups in my area. I did not have a sleigh so I did what I could.

Thanks Del; This has been a subject of conversation in my garage for a while now. My mother gave me a Christmas gift from Jordan when I was young a few decades ago, and this picture was on the gift box, I had a model a since I was 14 and she thought I would like it. I cut the box top and framed it to hang in my garage a few years back. I'm going to make my coupe look just like the picture. Puzzle solved have new print coming!
 
Many years ago I got a Christmas card from Ohio Model A legend, Paul Eippert, and it was this painting by Tom Browning. I searched and found the print still available and when the season comes, it goes up with the Christmas Tree. Another really nice Model A Christmas painting is "Christmas Leave" by aviation artist, William Phillips. It features a Model A driven by a serviceman driving up the driveway to the family farm. There is a B-24 flying near the horizon. Love this painting.

My Son and daughter in Law gave me this painting. It was very touching because of the Roadster(I have one), the service member (I retired from the Army) and the dog, a sheltie (I had one at a time for a total of 23 years). This painting is displayed in the wall above our bed.
