Christmas ephemera

I wish I had the actual pieces for this set, not just the instruction booklet, which is where the picture is from.

This manger scene was assembled at our (Keen's) house for several years in the 1950's in Windsor Hills, and maybe also in Ohio.

I was allowed to set it up a couple of times, which was a big deal.

Each figure had a tab to make it stand up. Small pieces of tape were involved, but carefully, since the whole thing had to be taken apart and be useable the next year.

The figures on the roof were especially challenging, even though their tabs were bigger. Can you see in the picture how the tabs match the backgrounds?

Yes, it was definitely used in Ohio
This picture was taken in 1956
