Rare Christmas TV Classics - Volume 1 (The Paul Winchell Show / The Ru (MOD) (DVD MOVIE)
Joe Santa Claus (1951): Cynical Joe Peters (Ray Montgomery) isn't happy about being assigned to Santa duty at the department store, but the role teaches him about the things in life that truly matter - love and forgiveness.
The Ruggles (1949-1952): Charlie Ruggles and his TV family decide to extend their bounteous Christmas spirit to the less fortunate folks in town.
You Asked For It (1950-1959): Host Art Baker honors viewers' mail-in requests with special holiday segments. In this episode, he visits Traymore, the amazing balloon-animal maker, then leads a platoon of Marine Korean war vets in a medley of Christmas hymns. Thomas P, Dillon and Ludwig Donath re-enact the Christmas scene from Abie's Irish Rose, and American families create a "living" Christmas card.
The Paul Winchell Show (1950-1954): Ventriloquist Paul Winchell and his wooden pal, Jerry Mahoney, star in a spoof of the Dickens classic, A Christmas Carol, as they visit past and future celebrations of the holiday.
