Hey All, I found a source for the claim of August Imgard decorating a pine tree with candy canes on the Candy Cane page, here is a copy below:
Parker, Rick (2003). Introduction to Food Science. Albany, New York: Delmar/Thomson Learning. ISBN 0-7668-1314-2 – via Google Books. "In 1670, the choirmaster at the Cologne Cathedral gave sugar sticks to his young singers to keep them quiet during the long Living Crèche ceremony. In honor of the occasion, he had the candies bent into the shepherd's crooks. In 1847, a German-Swedish immigrant named August Imgard of Wooster, Ohio decorated a small pine tree with paper ornaments and candy canes." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:603:5401:D6D0:58DF:4CFE:E916:B793 ( talk) 23:57, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

History should not be able to be tampered with and rewritten according to opinion!! Please remove this quote and citation. DigbyDarling ( talk) 00:26, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
@ E-960: I have removed the drawing but instead of returning the old photo of the ringed version, I have added one that depicts the most common type. While drawings can are are used in Wikipedia, the drawing you posted is of poor quality and arguably does not do a good job depicting the subject. However, photos of Podłaźniczka posted in Wikipedia Commons are also of poor quality. I have taken one that is marginal and color corrected, cropped, sharpened it to make it at least somewhat better. I strongly suggest if none of the photos are of good enough quality for you that you either take and submit better photos or seek out better photos that can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons.
