Could anyone do these gentle one-pagers better than Walt (Pogo) Kelly?
Nope, as this never-reprinted piece from Dell's Four Color Comics #91 aka Santa Claus Funnies (1945) proves!

Holiday Reading Room SANTA CLAUS FUNNIES "Santa Claus in Trouble"
Ever hear "hell hath no fury like a woman scorned"?
...well, when that woman is the Ice Queen, even ol' Kris Kringle better watch out!
Some observations...
Boy, the Ice Queen is a real...#itch, ain't she?
Santa has "magic snowshoes"?
Wonder what other kool gimmicks he has lying around the toyshop...
Illustrated by Lea Bing, this never-reprinted story from Dell's Santa Claus Funnies
#1 (1942) was the first in a series of annual books featuring not only
Kris Kringle, but other Christmas-related characters and stories that
ran from '42 to '62.

Merry Christmas!
Santa Claus' World War II-era attempt at updating his transportation...
...doesn't quite go as planned in this wraparound cover from Dell's Santa Claus Funnies #1 (1942).
Unfortunately,
the artist didn't sign it, and the experts at various comic indexing
sites have been unable to offer possible illustrators.
Personally, I'm thinking Walt Kelly.
(The snarky reindeer are an obvious giveaway)
Any suggestions?
Merry Christmas to All!
