My business associate has this book and I want one for myself. We design and manufacture holiday decorations for commercial applications. I use this book to help me design Christmas themes for historic victorian towns in particular. I recommend it highly as a source for how Christmas was depicted and celebrated in 19th Century America. It even shows the first known Christmas card.
