Christmas toys in the window at Frederick & Nelson, December 12, 1942

Seattle's Frederick & Nelson had a talented staff of designers who worked year around to create the department store's decorations and displays. The store was most famous for its Christmas windows.

Day 11 - Christmas Windows; Fortnum & Mason

It will always be Fortnum’s in one way or another for me, if it isn’t a first it is a close second because they take the magic of Christmas seriously. They have but a small window of opportunity to make passersby stop and gasp and by God do they make they best use of it. Christmas is serious business. Money is to be made yes, but you do not do so without infusing it with a bit of magic. Here is…
