So... you see that Frankenstein mask?
Right. Well... A Christmas Story takes place in 1939-40.
And the first Frankenstein mask ever made, wasn't produced until 1948, when the legendary Don Post began his master monster mask-making career.
I love that Bob Clarke wanted that mask there (it's not a 1948 mask, of course, but a much later Post creation, hence this post being titled with Post) but come on... a little research, even in the early '80s, would have informed them of their utter folly.
At any rate, if I were Randy, I wouldn't be napping with a zeppelin. I'd be napping... wearing the mask!

The Frankenstein mask, right? Anyway, awesome Christmas- really wonderful... but man, am I glad it's over!
