From the past, The Star Santa League!

Two members passing each other:



One of the members, Santa 4-Klaws,
greeting various space kids:



MERRY CHRISTMAS!

(Checkout the present in Sci-Fi Movies and Serials from 1950 to 1969 The Fabulous World of Jules Verne.)

Hence their presents on January 6th. (Greek Orthodox, Eastern Orthodox and Russian Orthodox kids open their presents today.)]
