This German advent calendar shows a gathering of fairy tale characters, angels, elves and woodland animals for a Christmas party including the frog price, snow white & her seven dwarfs and puss in boots.  They dance, eat and enjoy the Christmas festivities in their secret tree house covered in snow.  The large room glows with the light of an advent wreath while the moon lights on the snowy forest landscape outside.
    The tradition of the advent calendar dates back to 1851 in the Protestant parts of Germany. The first advent calendar with little doors was printed in the early 1900's and continues today.
    This calendar was printed in Germany, by the Korsch-Verlag Co., near Munich. Founded by Adolf Korsch Verlag in 1951.  Carefully selected motifs have been published every year, imaginatively down to the smallest detail, exclusively and lovingly illustrated by the artist's hand, accompanying you through the most beautiful time of the year.
    The detailed picture has 24 little doors to open. Each door has a little picture behind it. The tradition is to open one door each day from December 1 thru December 24. Children love to open a door a day as they count down to Christmas.
