Dickens' original work for Christmas story on show

LONDON - An exhibition that opened in London on Wednesday will transport visitors back to a time when a famous Christmas story was written.

The Charles Dickens Museum in the author's former home in Doughty Street, London, is displaying rarely seen material from A Christmas Carol, the classic story written by the 19th-century British author.

Original pencil sketches from the story are included in the exhibition, which charts the creation of the classic work. Original costumes from a new film, The Man Who Invented Christmas, are also on show.
