Coming this holiday season from Schiffer Books... Welcome to Kitschmasland - a fun, nostalgic look back at our infatuation with Christmas holiday decor during the 1950's through the 1970's. We will cover a gamut of decorations -some whimsical, some beautiful, and a treasure trove of campy kitsch that we officially anoint as "Kitschmas!" Author Travis Smith takes us on a magical tour of retro homes decked out for the holidays, and profiles a variety of festive holiday decorations from our not too distant past. Features include vintage Christmas collectibles with values such as ornaments, trees, ceramics, and more. More than four hundred photos are used to illustrate this whimsical journey through some of our favorite decades. Here is an interview with Travis in The Washington Post:
