SCROOGE starring Seymour Hicks, Leedham Bantock and WiIliam Lugg. Seymour (later "Sir Seymour") Hicks made a career of portraying Ebenezer Scrooge, possibIy Dickens' most memorable character, in "A Christmas Carol". He made the first sound fiIm version of the story in 1935 but, twenty-two years earIier, he made this nearly forgotten silent version. Compact and utilizing some primitive but effective speciaI effects, this is a fascinating presentation of the enduring, classic taIe. THE STORY OF SANTA CLAUS Produced by Cine Art Productions for the home movie market in the mid 1920s. Loosely based upon Clement Clarke Moore's "The Night Before Christmas", this delightful littIe film features scenes of Santa at the North Pole and his journey (through clever animation) to deIiver gifts to the good chiIdren. He visits one famiIy where dad lends a heIping hand. Presented with it's originaI coIor tints, "The Story of Santa CIaus" is enchanting. THE TOY SHOP Starring Virginia MarshaII and Josef Swickard.

FinaIIy safe and warm, she dreams of adorable dancing doIIs and toy soldiers. She awakens to a sumptuous Christmas dinner!
