Following World War II, American soldiers discovered the traditional, wooden German dolls sold at markets and brought them home to their families as souvenirs. In the 1950s, a New York City Ballet version of Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker sparked nationwide demand and catapulted nutcrackers into holiday tradition stardom. 

The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights are the founding documents of the United States and have instilled in the American people a strong sense of patriotism. These documents establish the foundation of our government, creating a system of laws and principles that all American citizens can take pride in.

The National Archives Store offers a wide selection of patriotic reproductions, gifts, accessories, collectibles, and apparel, all inspired by the extensive collections of records that are preserved and protected by the National Archives.
