XMAS CARTOONS AND SELECTED SHORTS.

 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.


CHRISTMAS NIGHT (1933) starring Oscar E. Soglow's The Little King.



Ub Iwerks' THE BRAVE TIN SOLDIER  (1934)









THE SHANTY WHERE SANTA CLAUS LIVES (1933)  
WB Merrie Melodies Directed by Rudolph Ising

 



SANTA'S WORKSHOP (1932) -  A Walt Disney Silly Symphony





GIFT WRAPPED (1952) WB Looney Tunes -  Directed by Friz Freleng






TOY TINKERS (1949) Walt Disney





PLUTO'S CHRISTMAS TREE (1952) Walt Disney



And these are my selected shorts, which I watch whether it's Christmas or not:

Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy in BIG BUSINESS (1929) 
Directed by James W. Horne and Leo McCarey






THE FIXER-UPPERS (1934) Directed by Charles Rogers


"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!
