FROM BEAUTIFUL ITALY, THIS IS A 1940'S VINTAGE NATIVITY CRECHE WITH NINE (9) ATTACHED ITALIAN MADE FIGURES ~ MARY AND JOSEPH, BABY JESUS, THREE WISE MAN, A COW AND A BURRO AND AN ANGEL ON TOP OF THE STAIR STEPPED LOFT. STATUES ARE ALL NICELY PAINTED VINTAGE AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AS PICTURES SHOW. CRECHE IS MADE OF WOOD ON SIDES, ROOF AND BACK WITH A COMPOSITE BOARD BASE AND HAS INTERESTING OLD TREE BARK TRIM ON THE ROOF EDGES (IN VERY GOOD CONDITION BUT DOES HAVE A CRACK ON THE RT SIDE JUST OVER JOSEPH'S SHOULDER SEE PHOTO). MUCH OF THE SPAGNUM MOSS THAT TRIMMED THE ROOF AND FLOOR BASE IS LONG GONE, BUT CAN EASILY BE REPLACED. THERE IS A LIGHT BULB ATTACHMENT CORD INCLUDED THAT IS NEWER THAN THE CRECHE THAT CAN BE INSERTED IN THE HOLE IN BACK TO LIGHT UP THE MANGER SCENE.
THE CRECHE MEASURES APPROX. 17" W X 11 1/2" H X 7 1/4" D ~ AN ESPECIALLY NICE VINTAGE ITALIAN MADE CHRISTMAS CRECHE.
