This time of year I always pull up the classic PES Yule Log Fireplace to warm things up. Nice to see something new from him.
Nautical wonderland The Deep is showcased as part of Showtime SHORT Stories series and like anything PES does, it’s just brilliant on so many levels.

The Indian Chief and Uncle Sam PEZ are from the Bicentennial Series PEZ released in 1976, which also included a Pilgrim , Indian Brave , Betsy Ross , and Wounded Soldier . Buy ’em here .
