"Topper" (December 25, 1953) - Part 1

"Topper" (December 25, 1953)

Director: Paul Landres

Scrooge Surrogate: Cosmo Topper 

We hang around the video world a bit longer for this episode of the early 1950s TV show "Topper."

This particular episode is a takeoff of "A Christmas Carol" with Cosmo Topper dreaming he's Ebenezer Scrooge. 

What makes it a bit more intriguing than the usual such thing is that Topper is played by Leo G. Carroll, who, of course, played Marley's Ghost in the 1938 movie adaptation of "A Christmas Carol" from MGM!
