This story takes place on Christmas Eve, 1944.
The appearance of Black Canary, Gimmick Girl, Mary Marvel and Harlequin are either artistic error, or render this story apocryphal.
The "Jimmy Gordon" in this story is not Commissioner James Gordon, but Jim Gordon, a detective who retired before James Gordon moved to Gotham City from Chicago.
