The 1964 stop-motion film of “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” is a classic that can be enjoyed around the holidays, regardless of your age.

For some it’s a passion, like a Lansford business owner who turns her collection of Rudolph toys into a hidden holiday gem each year.“It was just so cute. I just always liked it,” says Renai Foster.Foster was in grade school when the animated film debuted at Christmas 1964. Many years later, she started collecting and displaying Rudolph figurines at her shop, The Prime Cut, located on West Patterson Street.“As my collection gets bigger, the display gets bigger,” she said. “I’m sure there are other collectors, but none as crazy as I am.”An obsession that started with just one figurine — showing Rudolph and his beloved Clarice — now includes hundreds of figurines ranging from characters like the misfit toys, Yukon Cornelius, and the Abominable Snow Monster, all of whom make appearances in the classic production. She has brand-new toys, as well as an original book from the 1950s.“I don’t even know how much money I’ve spent on them. They keep coming out, and I keep buying them,” she said.Each year, around Halloween, Foster begins work on her display. Each Rudolph figurine is unpacked, as well as more than 2,000 Christmas ornaments that fill the tree at Prime Cut.“It takes up a lot of space to store them, but some are so intricate, they have to stay in their box,” she said.Just as impressive as Foster’s collection is the way that she displays the figurines. She creates a winter wonderland that looks so real that you’d think it would be cold to the touch. Not a single wire can be seen from the Christmas lights that dot the display. The entire thing is formed out of Styrofoam boxes, which she cuts with a serrated bread knife.“I’m very grateful for my clients who get insulin through the mail, or Omaha steaks, or QVC,” she said.Longtime customers look forward to see what shape the display will take this year. Jackie Stermer of Jim Thorpe said after a recent haircut at Prime Cut that she always looks forward to Foster’s latest design.“She doesn’t repeat. Each year it’s something else,” she said.She also welcomes the public. Kids are welcomed to look at the display, but kindly asked not to touch. She’ll invite friends to see it during a holiday party.Before the party, Foster will place one non-Rudolph item in the display, and challenge her guests to find it. This year, Foster used a piece from her other favorite TV classic, the cult classic “Dark Shadows.”Customers often ask how long Foster plans on keeping the display up. She jokes that if she ever finds someone who loves Rudolph as much as she does, she would put them in her will.“I love to do it. And when I don’t like to do it, I won’t do it anymore,” she said.Foster’s display will remain in place until a month after Christmas.
