    A view of what Santa would look like in 2007, from the perspective of 1907.

    Sadly, he's still on reindeer. Must be all the obesity medication, eats into his profits.

    Sexuality was quite suppressed back in those days.

    What the fuck? A little off topic, but I completely agree.

    Technology really should have veered off in a more steampunkish direction than all the modern crap we have today.

    Sure, steampowered computers would suck, not so much because they'd need a slave to shuffle all the coal but because of the deafening noise those machines make.

    It looks to me like in 1907, the concensus was that in 100 years, Santa would be piloting a giant inflatable dong in his quest to spread Christmas cheer to all good little girls.....and boys. Yikes.

    Of all the different shapes and technological gadgets the early 20th century had to offer (it would already be 4 years since the Wright brothers' flight at Kittyhawk happened), they chose to illustrate a contraption you can't deny is blatantly phallic.

    That was the joke.

    Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
    Sometimes a zeppelin is just a zeppelin.
    Sometimes a mall santa is just a pedophile.

    Now that you mention it, I can't help to feel that they were right at least in one respect.
