SHEBOYGAN — Step back in time and experience the magic of mid-20th century Christmas at the Sheboygan County Museum, where you can see vintage holiday displays from the popular local department store H.C. Prange.

The museum's "Holiday Memories" exhibit recreates the extravagant Christmas window displays that once captivated shoppers from the 1930s to 1970s. These aren't replicas. They're the original pieces from Prange's, carefully preserved and displayed in a new setting.

"It brings up a lot of memories from when I was a child," Lisa Mathes, a guest at the museum, said.

"It brings up a lot of memories from when i was a child, so we're talking over 50 years ago. And every year, we would go to see the Christmas display and see Santa at the end of it," Lisa Mathes said.
