Neiman Marcus - The Christmas Book 2006

By Barbara Crews, About.com

The Christmas Book is the one catalog that makes the news every fall. It's those wonderful fantasy gifts that everyone wants to know about.

This year's offerings include a GG Quad four wheeler for $56,465; a 7' tall pencil skyscraper artwork from The Art Guys; an auction for a sports celebrity dream package for tickets to six major sports events benefiting the Joe Torre Safe at Home Foundation; and last, but certainly not least, a Galactic Space Charter for $1,764,000. There are other amazing gifts, but these are my highlights.

Neiman Marcus is also known for their unusual collectible items and this year's catalog includes five Patricia Breen ornaments ranging in price from $36. to $130; a Versace candy dish at $98; a set of Waterford 12 Days of Christmas flutes at $1,250; three Steuben vases from $2,000 - $6,000; Lalique goddesses and a magnificent Daum Palm Magnum centerpiece for $13,395.
