Text transcribed from caption: PI-C-31493 FAMOUS CHRISTMAS ANGEL OF NUREMBERG For many years travelers have gone to Nuremberg, in Bavarian Germany, to see the angel shown here. The angel was made by a dollmaker who lost his small daughter just before Christmas. He fashioned the angel's face to look like his daughter's in the hope of comforting her mother and himself.
