Daniel D. Tompkins[edit]

In the 1947 movie. Kringle says that Tompkins was John Q. Adams' vice president. It was a mistake by the movie writers, who assumed that Adams & Tompkins served together, because Adams was the 6th President & Tompkins the 6th Vice President. GoodDay (talk) 04:21, 26 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

In the 1955 movie, Kringle says that Tompkins was Monroe's vice prssident, which he was.98.149.97.245 (talk) 09:01, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

D.A. Said He's Santa[edit]

This mention in the summary does not include when District Attorney Thomas Mara said that. It appears in a scene usually cut from broadcasts to allow more time for commercials. It was shot in the Central Park zoo. Mara's son, Tommy, can't get the reindeers' attention, but Kris walks by, snaps his finger and they come running (thanks to an unseen zoo employee's broom handle). Tommy exclaims getting the reindeer to come to him proves Kris is Santa, to which his father rather tiredly agrees. I played Tommy is how I know this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:7000:6A00:32DA:F856:CF5E:FBDE:81E0 (talk) 00:06, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
