The Steinbach Nutcracker Designs 2004
Christian Steinbach presents two new Santas - a Scandinavian Santa as contribution to the Christmas Legends Series and the Pear Tree Santa - which will represent the 12 days of Christmas and opens a new Steinbach series. There will be the famous Wizard of Oz Nutcracker, with a Hot Air Ballon, who will join the Wizard of Oz Series. Finally all three Ghosts in the Christmas Carol Series will be visiable - Steinbach decided not to end with Charles Dickens, which was introduced last year as final piece in that series, but to add the Ghost of Christmas Past in 2004 & the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come in 2005.
With the introduction last year of General Lee, General Grant made an appearance this year. This gives speculations more space that there might open a new series. Also an other nutcracker will get his favourite companion - Heidi will meet Peter - which will result in a very attractive set. Last but not least there will be a new Monk Winemaker and Napoleon as fourth introduction to the Famous Royalty Series
There is also an other piece available for club members only - the Ringmaster Nutcracker - just a nice and exquise as the other club pieces.
