For A Christmas That’s Out Of This World

Posted on December 24, 2023May 6, 2024 by Jim Banks

This was the Christmas greeting from H.H. and Addie Nininger, circa 1960. This was from the time they were operating the American Meteorite Museum in Sedona, Arizona.

As Nininger explained on the back of the card, the “Stardust” attached to the card was formed by the cooling of the cloud of metallic vapor produced by the explosion of the giant meteorite that formed the Arizona Meteorite Crater.

Happy Holidays to All!
