Holiday items from "Mr. Christmas" have already started appearing on
shelves at stores.  This year, they're offering a Holiday Symphonium
with sixteen tunes, eight Christmas, eight other songs.  The Symphonium
has a wood box with a glass or Lucite lid and is Wal-Mart pre-priced
at $54.84.

Also offered are animated musical books.  When you open the "book"
a Christmas tune begins playing.  There is a holiday scene in each book
which also starts in motion as the music plays.  These novelties are
priced at only $14.97 so they'll go fast!

For carousel enthusiasts, there is a Holiday Carousel with thirty songs
(fifteen carols and fifteen other songs).  The carousel turns and the
figures go up and down.  This carousel has other figures too, not just
the traditional horses which makes it more unique.  Wal-Mart pre-priced
at $69.84.
