A fascinating pictorial history of the American Christmas in the 19th Century. Images viewed through film, wood print, glass negatives and more show us that life 100+ years ago was not as different as we might think.

Children were still deep in thought of Santa visiting, adults were thinking of what was to come in the future. Families gathered and as the images show us how the upper class were doing so well, there are those that show us the less fortunate.

A perfect gift for those interested in Americana, History, Photography or are just plain stuck on Christmas.
