My Grandfather gave me a nativity set in the early 50's. The manger was cardboard and it came with about 7 plaster figures. Later on he made a wooden manger and fence to keep the sheep. All pieces were hand carved and put together with tiny nails. No glue. I have added many other figures through the years,They don't seem to make them in plaster anymore, more like hard rubber and not sure if they should even be in the scene
. The 7 plaster ones are still in use and in great shape. They are the ones most dear to me.
