1940's German Nativity from S.S. Kresge

Here's a composition/paper-mache Nativity made in U.S. Zone Germany. Nativity set was created right after WWII in the late 40's and was sold in S.S. Kresge, a chain store company. S.S. Kresge was the parent company of K-mart stores today. An interesting Nativity set as it tells the story of postwar Germany. Check it out at my ecrater store.

A fine example of Philipine sculpture from the turn of the century. Perhaps a product of one of the many great "talleres" in Santa Cruz district of Manila.
