Description
"Gotelli has selected more than 550 [Christmas-oriented] full-color photographs of his compendia of antiquities and oddities that seem to jump from Ye Olde Curiosity Shoppe of Queen Victoria's time. In addition, the professor reveals a rare glimpse behind the scenes for an insider's view of how such displays come to life in his home and on tour"--Dust jacket flap.
