A new campaign, “Summer Time Is Pepsi Time,” for the flagship Pepsi brand, takes a swipe at rival Coke with a little help from Santa Claus. It’s the third effort from the company in the past year to attack a Coca-Cola brand.

Coca-Cola Santa Claus 1931 – 1949

October 5th, 2010   |   3 Comments   |   1930 – 1950

Although many credit our modern day Santa to Thomas Nast, Santa’s jolly look all started in 1931 with Haddon Sundblom and Coca-Cola.
Legendary illustrator Haddon Sundblom created the rosy-cheeked figure – today’s traditionally accepted appearance of the jolly old elf – in 1931 for a Coke holiday advertising campaign. Since that time, the Coca-Cola Santa has become one of the most beloved cultural icons and an anticipated part of holiday tradition.
