Although very hard to find, this cartoon is well worth finding because it puts you in the mood for the true meaning of Christmas.
Back in the 70's I remember this cartoon being played almost every Christmas and look upon it as a classic right up there with more popular Rankin Bass productions.
I've seen it on VHS in bargain bins through the 80s but am yet to see it on DVD or VHS or anywhere as of late.
Hopefully one of these years, I will find this Gem again.
A true classic that should be viewed every Christmas eve by young and old alike.
