Hardrock, Coco, and Joe

The Christmas special Hardock, Coco, and Joe is a 3 minute long shortfilm that uses animagic in one of the first known animagic films.

It is a song about Santa and his 3 favorite helpers and the events of the christmas eve ride. In the song it says hardrock is the driver of the sleigh, coco reads maps that show them the way, and though santa has no need for joe, he takes him 'cause he loves him so. A famouse irony in the show is that Joe, the smallest elf, speaks in a deep bass tone.

This special has aired annually on one of Chicago's local networks sice the mid 1950s. It is totally in black and white. This is trully a lost christmas classic due to it only being seen by some viewers in the midwest. The special is traditionally shown along with Suzy Snowflake, and Frosty the snowman,(not to be confused with the rankin/bass frosty.)
