This lecture is the first on Long Island to discuss these two classic holiday animated specials. As of the writing of this description, both specials are no longer on “Free television” and are difficult to find on “Pay television”. With this presentation, attendees will learn the background of the making of both of these animated specials and then will enjoy a screening of both! “A Charlie Brown Christmas” and “How The Grinch Stole Christmas” will still warm your heart as they did when first broadcast in the mid 1960’s. This presentation includes a book, memorabilia and autograph display. And if time permits, some rare vintage Christmas cartoons will also be included.
