Christmas, 1940-1959: a Collectors Guide

Arrived in timely fashion and even though used was in excellent condition I am thoroughly enjoying reliving Christmas from my childhood through this book. It did miss one of my favorite ornaments - the tulle angels with spun cotton heads that I now try to collect.

Antique ornaments

Book is a wealth of knowledge for the serious collector. My book looked brand new
