Early board game manufacturers often produced games carrying holiday themes. They marketed these games during the holiday gift-buying season. This "Game of the Visit of Santa Claus" doubtless appealed to gift-buying adults. Many of these older board games carried hand-written inside inscriptions, often marking the year of the gift, and the giver.
