1939 Radio Play, Lets join everyone in the parlor and have a listen, The forward of the book reads. I have endeavored in this ghostly little book to raise the Ghost of an Idea which shall not put my readers out of humour with themselves, with each other, with the season, or with me. May it haunt their houses pleasantly and no one wish to lay it. Signed == Their Faithful Friend and Servant, Charles Dickens December 1843
