‘Noah’s Ark’ Disappears from Holiday Scene
inii il i ill **:,j: cu i».............
the Christmas tree itself was
not as likely to be a part of
the holiday scene. Around the
middle of the nineteenth cen-
tury, the Sunday school move-
ment had begun to popularize
the idea of family Christmas
trees, but a tree at home was
still not something a child
would take for granted.
As for the toys, under the
tree or not, the usual gift
might be only one toy, and
that one not a toy that mod-
ern children would recognize.
This is not to say, however,
that nineteenth century chil-
dren were to be pitied.
In a single toy, the “Noah’s

complex. Basically, this toy
consisted of the ark itself, in
miniature of course, accompa-
nied by gaily painted wooden
figures representing Noah, his
family, and animals in pairs.
The more elaborate the toy,
the greater was the number of
animals included. One nine-
teenth century Noah’s Ark set,
now part of the New York His-
torical Society’s collection, in-
cludes more than 300 animals.
Everything from little birds
and domestic cats to ele-
phants, camels, lions and ti-
gers is represented.

These days, the variety of

practically limitless. The toy

thing and anything that a
lucky child might see in his
