Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A community-built archive of holiday decorations, collectibles, movies, specials, catalogs, and memories, with a marketplace for buying and selling.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-03 issue.

For: Holiday memorabilia collectors and nostalgia-minded browsers
Worth noticing: Several featured records are explicitly marked “Photo needed,” making the archive’s gaps visible rather than hiding them.

Field notes

The homepage organizes material into holiday archives, media, decade browsing, recently verified records, and a “most wanted” list. Its examples range from a 1908 Halloween postcard to 2012 Jack in the Box ornaments, while several entries openly note that a photo is still needed. The page credits Wikimedia Commons, Cover Art Archive/MusicBrainz, and TMDB for imagery.
