Christmas is the perfect time to watch these cartoons which are not readily available on TV or on the main streaming services but can be found navigating the internet, principally on YouTube and Vimeo. I remember watching all of these when I was very young and television was just gaining momentum, (mid-50s, early 60s). Needless to say, it was a veritable nostalgia trip when I found them after all those years.

"Jingle bells, jingle bells
coming through the rye.
I wish you a merry Christmas
even as you and I"
And without further ado, I bid you farewell and a Merry Christmas to you!
