==Trivia==
*This album marks Alan Young's first performance as Scrooge McDuck.
*This marks the first and only time that Alan Young voices Mickey Mouse and Morty Fieldmouse.
*Most of the characters and the roles that they played would remain the same in the 1983 cartoon, with a few exceptions:
**The two fundraisers were (ironically) played by Honest John and Gideon in the record, whereas those roles in the cartoon were played by Water Rat and Mole.
**The Ghost of Christmas Past was played by Merlin in the record, whereas Jiminy Cricket took on that role in the cartoon.
**The Ghost of Christmas Future was played by the Witch from Snow White in the record, whereas the cartoon gave that role to Pete.
*This record was reissued in 1982 under the title Mickey's Christmas Carol, and features the same characters as in the 1983 cartoon (such as Jiminy Cricket replacing Merlin as the Ghost of Christmas Past), along with beginning with the song "Oh What a Merry Christmas Day," the song that opened the cartoon.
*Alan Young and Clarence Nash are the only voice actors from the record to reprise their roles in the 1983 cartoon as Scrooge McDuck, Donald Duck respectively, while the rest of the character voices are recast for the 1983 cartoon, such as Wayne Allwine as Mickey Mouse, Will Ryan as Willie the Giant, Hal Smith as Goofy, amongst others.
*Most of the illustrations produced for this record's accompanying storybook were reused for the Disney Read-Along adaptation of Mickey's Christmas Carol, except for those featuring the characters who were recast for the featurette. Oddly, the illustration depicting a human Fezziwig was unaltered for said Read-Along, despite Fezziwig being played by Mr. Toad in the animated version.
