Germany in the late 1800's was the epicenter for craftsmen making Christmas décor and ornaments. One such craftsman was Richard Mahr.

This is the story of Richard Mahr and his family and how they overcame personal tragedies while navigating their company through the Great Depression, two world wars, a devastating fire and the annexation of their homeland by the communist state. How did Richard Mahr and his family survive insurmountable odds to save his vision for KEEPING CHRISTMAS? |
