First of two voice portrayals of Ebenezer Scrooge for Ron Haddrick - he would reprise the role 13 years later in the feature length Burbank Production A Christmas Carol (1982).
One of the few adaptations of the story where Scrooge does not see Marley's image on his front door knocker.
Scrooge is shown here with a gentleman's accessory of the era, a tin of powdered snuff.
