Fire Truck Christmas Ornament from Merck Family's Old World Christmas. This fire truck ornament is approximately 4 1/2" in length and 2" in width and ht. It is brightly colored with a great amount of detail.
This traditional and beautiful glass ornament was carefully mouth-blown into a finely crafted mold. Then a hot solution of liquid silver was poured inside. Finally, it was delicately hand-painted and glittered for you to enjoy and cherish as a holiday heirloom.
What could be better than that childhood favorite - a shiny, red Fire Truck! Toymakers often turned real-life items into toys for children, so they could learn as they played. A child could imagine being a heroic fireman bravely battling danger.
