To the right, a page from a 1955 Noma Catalog--yes they're plastic--it was after all, still new and exciting for Christmas at the time (!).
The "bell" cathedral might provide some inspiration for the crafters and artisans in our group. Imagine a vintage nativity or some other Christmas scene inside. Click on the photo.
The catalogs are arriving in earnest: one of the our favorites is THE WIRELESS CATALOG. Admittedly there are some things in here that make you go hmmmmmmm, but every now and then, some really neat stuff found nowhere else--like this light up Coca Cola truck with Sundblum Santa illustration http://bit.ly/17tmFF9
Spend some there; you'll probably find more http://www.thewirelesscatalog.com/
Howard Lamey of littleglitterhouses.com has a new putz house in the works; click on the link, keep scrolling down the page to see the pattern and progress http://www.cardboardchristmas.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=447
Stay tuned for a really interesting article and more, Thoughts About Halloween, from good friend Paul Race--but if you can't wait: http://familychristmasonline.com/other_holidays/halloween/halloween.htm
