vintage mid century nativity creche chalkware figures cardboard stable

This is a vintage cardboard manger with chalkware figures. A wonderful old piece with lithograph scene on back wall. The holy family and the sheep are glued to the manger.

The shepherd boy and wise men are not. Angel hangs from top with an attached wire on back. Figures show a little wear.

Stable is still very nice. Does have black electrical tape around the hole in the back. This was done to protect the cardboard.

When a bulb was lit. The design makes it so you can't see it when in use.
