Vintage/Antique Folk Carved Santa Wooden Figurine 8 1/2" For Sale

Lovely folk art carved wooden Santa. He has that kind of primitive art look about him But he's cool. Santa measures 8 and 1/2 in tall and is 3 in in width at the base. This one may actually be antique and very potentially from Germany. It came from an estate sale of a German lady who had all kinds of vintage and antique German items. It looks similar to one by Midwest importers of Cannon Falls but it's not exactly the same. It almost looks like theirs is a reproduction of what this is supposed to be. But without markings it's all just a guess
