Welcome to This Day In Christmas Shopping History as your host Allan Appel and co-pilot Jason Bischoff-Wurstle of the New Haven Museum travel back to when all the action was not at the tree on the Green, but at Toyland and Toyville and the great displays put on by Malley's, Shartenberg's, and the fabled and long gone department stores of mid-20th century Chapel Street, the epicenter for gift-buying in the Elm City.
