It is so 40s Cleveland,.. I use to read Playboy magazine, every month
and can assure you the The Christmas Story is a copulation of at least 6 short stories wriiten by Jean Shepard and published in Playboy back in the 60s ;
Next time you watch the movie, look for the guy in the grey hat
and black coat , that tells Ralphy where the end of the line is.
Thats the author Mr. Jean Shepard in a cameo appearance.
