Appeared in The Free Lance Star, 19 December 1947: news.google.com/newspapers?id=u9RNAAAAIBAJ&sjid=oooDA... With this caption: "Four-year-old Marion Stockton drove 35 miles from Orlando, Fla., to mail her letter to Santa Claus at this famous post office in Christmas, Florida. She is personally dropping her letter into Santa's bag between sucks on a lollypop. She confided that she's asking for a broom. Thousands of packages, letters, and cards pour into Christmas at this time every year, from all over the nation."

Amazing that a four-year-old drove 35 miles! But then, those were the "good-ole-days" ;) This is a wonderful back-story!

Pixel Wrangler I was thinking that too--picturing her pedaling one of those little toy cars, all the way from Orlando... And how sweet that she's asking for a broom?
