History

Mittelmark has been a prominent name in the display industry for almost eighty years, since Gus Mittelmark founded Colonial Decorative Display Company in New York City in the 1940s. From the legendary Christmas tree in Chicago’s Marshall Field’s to the set of Sesame Street’s Elmo Saves Christmas, three generations of Mittelmarks have been helping retailers and designers create the look of Christmas.
