Enjoy the delightful images of "The Polar Express" with both the nesting doll and book set. Each of the six pieces has Santa Claus showing images that takes you through Chris Van Allsburg's illustrated story book. The last piece, a jingle bell from Santa's sleigh, will remind you that Santa Claus is indeed real for those who believe. This is a perfect gift for anyone that love Santa Claus stories.

These images have hand painted backgrounds and highlights, and for certain elements, Golden Cockerel reproduces the original hand-painted artwork on printed vinyl and artfully applies them to the dolls. The artist paints and blends the two forms of artwork together into a unified piece. Then the dolls have multiple layers of non-toxic water-based lacquer applied. The designs are done at the Golden Cockerel art studio in St. Petersburg, Russia. The bottom of the largest doll gets stamped with Golden Cockerel’s “Made in Russia” mark of quality, initialed by the artist, and dated like a true collectible.
