Rudolph And Santa, As Good As New.

The article reports that puppets which featured in the 1964 stop-motion television special "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," have been restored and put for public display at the Center for Puppetry Arts in New York City. The puppets are believed to be the last two surviving figures made by Japanese puppet makers in the 1960s. The puppets were procured by Kevin A. Kreiss, the president of TimeandSpaceToys.com, from a descendant of an employee of Rankin-Bass, the company that made the film.
