New Book: Christmas Memories

Susan Waggoner, author of IT'S A WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS and UNDER THE TREE, is back with a third volume on American Christmas celebrations.

Waggoner's new book is CHRISTMAS MEMORIES: GIFTS, ACTIVITIES, FADS AND FANCIES, 1920S-1960S.

Waggoner's books, as I described in a post two years ago, are "a visual feast of 'retro' graphic art, including pictures from catalogues, magazine ads, and movie posters." They are real "eye candy" for anyone who loves Christmas-related graphic art of the mid 20th Century.

The customer images available at Amazon show that this latest book is more of the same. It's a "must" for my Christmas wish list.
