My guess would be A.. 1927. Pretty hard to have electric lights before they were invented at least. Or I think it is.....

 

 

It's snowing here. Looks real pretty this morning.

Here we go:

 

A Visit From St. Nicholas

Henry Livingston, 1808

 

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,

In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there

The children were nestled all snug in their beds,

 

While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads;

 

And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,

 

Had just settled down for a long winter's nap,

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,

 

I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.

 

Away to the window I flew like a flash,

 

Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

 

The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow

 

Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below,

When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,

 

But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer,

 

With a little old driver, so lively and quick,

 

I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.
