On offer in the 2021 Christmas Book will be a one-of-one 2022 Barrett-Jackson GMC HUMMER EV Edition 1 created exclusively for Neiman Marcus, with a custom interior curated by Barrett-Jackson Chairman and CEO Craig Jackson.
Barrett-Jackson is thrilled to have been selected to be a part of the legendary Neiman Marcus Fantasy Gifts in the 2021 Christmas Book.
The world-famous Neiman Marcus Christmas Book originated in 1915 as a Christmas card inviting customers to the store to start their holiday shopping. The next Neiman Marcus Christmas catalog didn’t appear until 1926, and, though modest in size at 16 pages, it established a lasting tradition of showcasing the unusual, the humorous and the beautiful in a wide variety of prices, with keen emphasis on selectivity and taste.
In 1959, in answer to press inquiries about unusual Christmas gifts, Stanley Marcus and his brother Edward brainstormed about an extraordinary gift for that year: a Black Angus steer, delivered on the hoof or in steaks, complete with a silver-plated serving cart. The response was tremendous, and a world-famous retailing phenomenon was born.
Today, the Neiman Marcus Christmas Book has evolved into the ultimate wish book.
On offer in the 2021 Christmas Book to an incredibly lucky recipient will be a one-of-one 2022 Barrett-Jackson GMC HUMMER EV Edition 1 Pickup, the world’s first all-electric super truck. This edition, created exclusively for Neiman Marcus, features a custom interior curated by Barrett-Jackson Chairman and CEO Craig Jackson, highlighted by two-tone handcrafted leather seats and anodized metal accents, customized Neiman Marcus badging, a bespoke steering wheel, customized running boards and special entry illumination projection lighting.
The HUMMER EV’s Extreme Off-Road Package and unique Crab Walk(1) mode are just two of the impressive performance engineering elements of the vehicle, as well as the Watts to Freedom(2) feature that enables the vehicle to accelerate from a GM-estimated 0 to 60 mph in approximately three seconds. To ensure this tailor-made road warrior stays fully charged, the fantasy gift recipient will also receive an electric charging station (including professional installation) for their home.
In addition to this incredible truck, this fantasy gift package includes a complimentary bottle of champagne at the gift recipient’s hotel and transportation from the hotel to and from the 2022 Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction, as well as VIP access for two to Carolyn and Craig Jackson’s personal skybox at the 2022 Scottsdale Auction (January 22-30), an invitation for two to the renowned Opening Night Gala, receipt of the vehicle on the world-famous Barrett-Jackson auction block and the rare opportunity to “drop the gavel” on the block during the event.
The new owner of this one-of-one vehicle will also receive transportation of their GMC HUMMER EV Edition 1 Pickup provided by Reliable Carriers to a destination of choice within the continental U.S, as well as priority parking at their preferred Neiman Marcus store. And to follow in the auction company’s tradition of giving to those in need, with this purchase Barrett-Jackson will donate $10,000 to The Heart of Neiman Marcus Foundation.
The ultimate gift for drivers with an eye on the future, this luxury package featuring an exclusive Barrett-Jackson GMC HUMMER EV Edition 1 Pickup can be reserved by calling 480-306-8284.
