Satchemo (Animatronic)
Satchemo was the horn player from The Santa Claus Revue.
History
Satchemo was installed in 1977 in Santa’s Village (Jefferson, New Hampshire) by Creative Engineering (1) for the first full show that they developed, where he operated until 2015/2016. In 2006, the animatronics were replaced by ones created by Advanced Animations, but the showtape wasn’t replaced. (2)
Design
He is Elf with large eyes and bushy eyebrow; he wore a festive outfit with a Santa hat and was also holding a horn.
