On this day, December 17, 1985, The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus, a Christmas television special produced by Rankin/Bass Productions, premiered on CBS.

Based on the book by L. Frank Baum, the creator of The Wizard of Oz, the story offers a whimsical and fantastical origin tale of Santa Claus, exploring his childhood, how he became the iconic figure we know today, and his magical connections to the immortal world.

This Rankin/Bass stop-motion production features their signature animation style and stands as one of the lesser-known but beautifully crafted Christmas classics.
