Merry 1940's Christmas Poster
Christmas always has been and always will be an important holiday, but during the ?40s it took on a special meaning. For some, it meant the cessation of hostilities and a chance for a good meal; for others, it was the time of the year when the pangs for a missing loved one were particularly acute. And as always, Christmas meant a celebration of spirit, family and?most importantly during that momentous decade?hope. We?ve collected 25 of the most beloved holiday-themed recordings from the ?40s for your listening enjoyment?we daresay they?ll make your 21st-century Christmas celebrations a little brighter.Broadway & Vocalists Music CDs
