Rudolph was written in 1939 as an advertising gimmick for the Montgomery Ward department store. It was intended to be a promotional give-away book, but the tale quickly became popular. In 1947, the author, Robert L. May, bought the copyright from the department store and began to market Rudolph. The song was recorded in 1949 by Gene Autry, and the rest is history. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer was written in 1949 by U.S. songwriter Johnny Marks. He took the idea from a verse written in 1939 by his brother-in-law, Robert L. May.

Which is santas favourite reindeer?
In general, Santa can't play favorites. All of his reindeer deserve recognition and praise, and they get it. Of course, Rudolph did come through in an amazing way that one year, even though everyone else was picking on him, so there is a soft spot in Santa's heart for him... but he loves all the reindeer.
