Rudolph first appeared in a 1939 booklet written by Robert L. May and published by Montgomery Ward.[

May's brother-in-law, Johnny Marks, adapted the story of Rudolph into a song. Gene Autry's recording of the song hit No. 1 on the Billboard pop singles chart the week of Christmas 1949. Autry's recording sold 2.5 million copies the first year  So answer is Johnny Marks, Montgomery Ward

Picture coming

Answer to Day 2:  

True. America's official national Christmas tree is located in King's Canyon National Park in California. The tree, a giant sequoia called the "General Grant Tree," is over 300 feet high. It was made the official Christmas tree in 1925.

Q: The story goes that Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer was originally written in 1939 as a department store jingle.  By whom and what department store.
