Gene Autry debuted “Frosty the Snow Man” on his Melody Ranch Radio show seventy-four years ago on October 7, 1950. Yes, you read that correctly, Gene promoted his new Christmas song before Halloween! In fact, over the years he introduced several Christmas tunes on his radio show before folks had even carved their jack-o-lanterns. So, if you think retailers are “rushing the season just a little” today -- well, it seems that’s been happening for nearly three-quarters of a century!
