Here is a classic Christmas cartoon from the 1930s called "Christmas Comes But Once A Year." An old toymaker visits an orphanage to fix inferior toys left by Santa Claus. Personally, I have a problem having Santa exposed as being a subpar toymaker, but the cartoon has its charms nonetheless. Enjoy!
