Christmas is my favorite time of the year, there is something in the atmosphere that just makes you happy, although every year Xmas seems to be a little less exciting, you still can feel the magic in it. Some might say that we are too grown up to notice the Christmas spirit, I say that people are not putting the same effort they used to.
We found some pictures of past Christmas and it’s perfect, there is no denial we are missing something in our times. Maybe next year we’ll take these photos as an inspiration to make the holidays a magical time again.
10. Santa hanging out with The Beach Boys.
California is too hot for the raindeers, so Santa had to leave them at the North Pole in 1963 in order to spend some time with one of the greatest bands in history.
9. Dali as a weird Santa Claus.
The painter was showing his eccentricity and love for the season in this 1962 Christmas greeting.
8. The Rockettes performing in 1967.
Nothing says Christmas more than a great dance number of these girls.
7. People going crazy with presents at London’s Woolworths store in 1955.
This is how your grandparents looked like buying gifts for your parents.
6. Christmas was everywhere.
Even the American soldiers were feeling the spirit during Vietnam war in 1967.
5. It used to be so romantic.
How many of us do the same as this soldier? He was giving a last minute kiss under the mistletoe to his GF in 1939.
4. Adults received presents.
Yes, believe it or not. I don’t know what changed but I wanna be Jim Henson in 1986 because this doesn’t happen to me.
3. The ultimate Christmas Carol.
They made a huge living Xmas tree out of carolers back in 1971. I wanna be a part of that, come on!
2. The decorations were the greatest part.
I don’t know about you but I can’t feel on Christmas if the decorations aren’t on. I love these on Hollywood Boulevard in 1950.
1. When the raindeers got sick.
Santa has presents to deliver, no matter what he needs to get to the children’s houses. He flew a plane in 1920 when his raindeers couldn’t make it.
