Excitement can be found all around Hyde Park on this glorious Saturday afternoon !!!
The Masters went shopping at the latest and most fashionable Department Store in town : Rudolph Karstadt !!!
As many happy little Victorians would tell you : "Harrods is so 1908"...
A dedicated Shopping Assistant takes them through the various departments, and with the 1909 Christmas Brochure in hand, the Masters can make their selection : a new fireplace, a pair of chandelliers, vases, a toy box...not to forget the quintessential Christmas Tree !!!
Shopping can be such an exhausting activity and a cup of tea back at the Mansion will be a real comfort !!!

Did they have new car smell back in 1909? I'm sure MISB 4083 smelt similar. Very cool just hope they didn't get snowed on the way home!

Beautifull story - you have a great attention to details and the blue truck is a nice addition to the Victorian theme. Thanks for the pcis.

Excellent photostory, Karim, and what detail and care in the sets and composition! Like Gepetto and Bill, I like the way you've used the Advent calender as a backdrop.

Playmofire & Bill :wave:
Thank you for your kind comments !!!
Yes Mr Bill, I am up to the challenge and as a matter of fact, my winter diorama called "A Chrismas Miracle on Regent St - a Victorian Tale" will be inspired by a famous tale indeed...
Work in progress ;)...
In the meantime, I am delighted to introduce the video of my last creation - greatly inspired by a suggestion of VCR Klicky - called :
Christmas Shopping at Rudolph Karstadt - A Victorian Tale
Here is a link to the video that I have just uploaded and the music is being edited :
