The contest was to make an original ornament for the Christmas tree in the White House. The ornament that won the contest at her school was made by Julie and looked very much like your gigolo except that Julie's figure did not have spools of thread but had pine cones and sprigs of holly on him. This was a National contest and all the winners were invited by President and Mrs. Clinton to spend the day at the White House and put their ornament on one of the many trees that graced the house. It was a wonderful day for a little 8 year old girl and the rest of the families were invited to the White House the next day to see the beautifully decorated trees. I'm happy that you featured Elly's Gigolo today because you brought back a lovely memory to me.. Grannymar,
