This famous elf has been unlocking imaginations in Cleveland, Ohio for generations and bestows "Good Luck Keys" to all he meets. Mr. Jingeling first appeared on the Cleveland airwaves of WEWS TV in 1956 as a spokesman for the Halle Bros. department store. The original idea behind Mr. Jingeling was to promote the toys that Halle's was featuring at their store. Becoming hugely popular, the character of Mr. Jingeling soon took on a new role and was getting more air time to tell stories about his adventures as a key maker who ultimately was appointed by Santa to be one of his most trusted elves... the "Keeper of the Keys". Mr. Jingeling also made personal appearances "on Halle's seventh floor", as the song goes, to entertain and engage young and old alike. After Halle's closed its doors, Mr. Jingeling began appearing at rival Higbee's department store, Tower City Center and more recently at several venues across Northeast Ohio.
