A companion book to Immigrants, Ornaments, and Legacies.
Jody debuted the book at the 2022 Golden Glow of Christmas Past convention to a receptive audience.
”I was so honored to speak at the Chicago Golden Glow convention. Glowers have such knowledge of vintage Christmas from lights to department stores to Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. The experience was terrifying and humbling with so many experts in the audience membership and now I’m grateful for the book’s reception.” Jody Pritzl

229 color photographs of vintage American-made glass Christmas ornaments
40 color photographs of vintage ornament boxes

History of the American industry from the 1930s to the 1960s
