Post Early for Christmas (1943)

British Pathé

Synopsis: A yearly reminder for U.K. citizens to get their Christmas cards and packages mailed in a timely fashion.

Kitty Cameo: A man (Richard Massingham) contemplates why he tied a knot in a handkerchief and a rope. He knows it was meant to remind him of something, he just can’t remember what. A black cat appears to be of no help in reminding him, either.
