The 30's didn't produce too many memorable Christmas cartoons but this is one of the better ones: Gifts From the Air (Columbia Color Rhapsody, 1937). The animation is as choppy as you would expect from a Rhapsody, and the plot is full-on sentimental, but there's something appealing about it to me.
Maybe it's the creepy Santa.

Hey that was fun! It's like Citizen Kane if he'd never left home at the beginning. Maybe that's why it appeals to you -- you're a Rosebud kind of guy and don't know it. (How about that American anime face of the boy?) Thanks!
Thanks for stopping by and Happy X-mas!
