Nostalgic Christmas Scenes


1948
I once read an opinon that the reason some people collect those little winter village scenes is that it gives them pleasure to remember a time and place that might not even have existed for them. Perhaps these scenes from old greeting cards, calenders and magazine ads are a bit idyllic, maybe a little bit staged. But as I get older, I too tend to remember past Christmas times and other events as better  than they probably were. I don't see anything wrong with this at all, If you don't either, then enjoy the following pictures.
