Edited Sunday evening to add: For anyone interested, there's a fascinating story about Charles Dickens' visit to Portland in March of 1868 on MaineToday.com.

From the Dickens' Collection, a portion of our Department 56 Christmas display, is a version of Charles Dickens reading his Christmas Carol.
