Abstract

REGULARSOn Christmas Eve 1931, this historic image of the first Rockefeller Center Christmas tree was captured.

Since this image was captured, the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree has become an annual tradition, showcasing bigger and brighter trees each year. [Extracted from the article]
