An absolute must for any collector of Inge-
glas ornaments or any person passionate 
about Christmas!  "Christmas and 
Traditions" written by Klaus & 
Birgit Müller-Blech, this 160 page 
comprehensive book is loaded with phtotos, 
illustrations and maps and covers the 
celebration of Christmas from their unique 
perspective.

The book covers the history of glass 
Christmas ornament making; the history of 
the Inge-glas firm; the 14 generations of 
the Müller-Blech family; a tour of the 
Historical Museum in Neustadt; a tour of 
the factory illustrating the process in the

The creation of this book, like the

The Nutcracker
ETA Hoffmann / Maurice Sendak

The tale of Nutcracker, written by E.T.A. Hoffmann in 1816, has fascinated and inspired artists, composers, and audiences for almost two hundred years.

He joined with the eminent translator Ralph Manheim to produce this illustrated edition of Hoffmann's wonderful tale, destined to become a classic for all ages. Illustrations in Detail The world of Nutcracker is a world of pleasures. Maurice Sendak's art illuminates the delights of Hoffmann's story in this rich and tantalizing treasure.
