We ship everyone of our items as soon as humanly possible after the sale. We always wrap and package well so they get to you in the condition that they leave here! This is an adorable stuffed Santa head that can be hung on a door knob or any place you want some Christmas cheer. He's about 13" long from the bend in his hat to the bottom of his beard. His back opens to reveal a battery pack but I CAN NOT get open to see if he works. I am selling him as NON-WORKING.
