This stop-motion animated TV special has appeared on American TV every year since its debut in 1964. The vehicles you see actually come from a live action stock footage montage at the very beginning of the show. The rest is animated. |

They screwed up the copyright date under the title - the Roman numerals say 1164 instead of 1964... There's also a shot of the tail of a snowbound Convair 240/440 for the airplane buffs. -- Last edit: 2010-12-08 20:03:02 |

Off the topic The Rudolph red-nosed reindeer animation used the incandescent bulb such as General Electric Opaque Red Coated S6 Bulb among in my collection |

Interesting note, rjluna: the first two years this show appeared on TV, its main advertiser was actually General Electric. The first year, Herbie and the rest of the elves even did the commercials! |

The beginning of the golden era of TV-Christmas Specials. I always wanted to know where all this stock footage came from. Why is the '54 Ford Crestline two stars, though? |

I made it two stars, Ddey, because it's clearly the focus of that particular shot. We're meant to see people push a car through snow to know how badly the blizzard affected traffic. If it just sat there and people in front of it shoveled snow, it would be one star. |

His name is actually Hermey. When I was younger, I used to mishear his name as Herbie. |
