Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. But no, The Coca-Cola Co. (NYSE: KO) did not invent him. It's hard to argue that Coke's advertising over the years hasn't left a large imprint on the American psyche. It's one of the America's signature brands, after all. The Real Thing.

Artist Haddon Sundblom was commissioned to create a large, jovial, pink-cheeked Santa for Coca-Cola ads. He did, and that image of Santa ran in 42 ads on billboards and in magazines from 1931 to
1964, cementing the image of a red-and-white-clad Santa for several generations of Americans.
