What’s that? You want to see MORE for Christmas?

Well, here are just four of many in a collection of nutcrackers donated to Alleghany Historical Museum this fall by Delta Peterson. We are grateful and very happy to be able to display Mrs. Peterson’s collection of decorative, holiday nutcrackers and incense “smoker” figures.

In 1997, Steinbach nutcrackers premiered a new series to honor the beloved tale, “A Christmas Carol,” by Charles Dickens. These four design production-runs were limited to just 7,500 pieces, each.
