Karl is our icon, our mascot, our ambassador....he probably gets his picture
taken more than any other person in this Bavarian Village. He is our
star-power, for he has been on national television, and in many articles in
newspapers and magazines over the years. He came from Germany, carved by
Karl Rappl.
We visited Herr Rappl and asked about making us a nutcracker, and said that we
wanted a Bavarian. He immediately created several designs on a notepad. We
chose our favorite, and he started to work. It was 18 months before the
nutcracker arrived in the US. |
