More Victorian Christmas Stories Added
Just a few hours until Christmas, and before I retire to my own fantastic dreams of sugar plums with zero calories, I leave you with two stories and an article. We have The Christmas Fairy of Strasburg, a charming little bit of German folk-lore; In Toy Land: Glimpses of a Great Industry, an interesting article from a Victorian magazine for boys; and lastly, My Cousin, The Ghost, or, Something Like a Christmas-Box, by Alfred Paxton, appeared in The Boy’s Own Paper, Saturday, January 6th, 1883.
I hope that you have a very Merry Christmas, and look forward to sharing more forgotten treasures with you in 2010.
Cheers!
Miss Mary
