Rankin/Bass took a few years off from Christmas Specials after 1970’s “Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town” but in 1974 they delivered a traditional animation “Twas the Night Before Christmas” (see previous reel) and another stop motion special “The Year Without a Santa Claus”. This is 7th on the list of 19 Rankin/Bass Christmas/Holiday specials! #rankinbass #rankinbassproductions #christmasspecials #80skids #70skids #nostalgia #80schristmas #70schristmas #throwbackchristmas #classicchristmas #theyear
