If I am not mistaken the radio singer Ray Heatherton, the so-called Merry Mailman, helped to popularize this song, ( a good side line, as well Christmas makes bigs bucks for the post office!) I had this record as a kid. For some odd reason it isn"t widely played, I have not heard it on the Yule stations for a couple of seasons. It is a good family type song, nothing offensive.

Who is more famous William shakspere or Santa Claus?
Santa Claus is an agglomeration of a number of mythological figures and one real one--St. Nicholas. Any myth or legend about a bringer of gifts or good cheer, especially at the winter solstice, is likely to be identified as Santa Claus. People can know that part of the legend without knowing anything about the way the legend is told in other parts of the world, and in particular without knowing the facts about St. Nicholas, which are actually not all that well-known. William Shakespeare, on the other hand, was a real person, and he is known all around the world as the author of the plays he wrote. Many more people know the facts about Shakespeare than know the facts about St. Nicholas.
