This three-panel pop-up of the Nativity features full color backgrounds and a 4-tier pop-up on each panel. Incredibly detailed and richly colored, this large, rare, pop-up is reminiscent in design of Meggendorfer's International Circus or the Buffalo Bill Wild West Show, some of the best 19th century pop-ups ever created (and it makes a wonderful decoration around Christmastime!). In VG+ condition (with one small piece slightly overhanging the top of the boards), complete and original.
