Peggy O'Neill from Gloucester, MA, treasures her tiny, German-made, wooden nativity scene. "I have no idea who purchased it--maybe my maternal grandmother or my mother," Peggy offers. "I just know it's over 70 years old; it's always been part of Christmas, and my favorite part of Christmas is placing this nativity in a favorite spot where I can always see it."
