I have the exact same one. The Man & I bought it 42 years ago for our first Christmas together after we married. It has been some place in our home every Christmas since then. When our first grandchildren (twin girls) were toddling around, getting into things, I kept finding Baby Jesus or some of the sheep, in some very strange places. After that particular Christmas, I glue-gunned all the pieces in place & just store it that way. For many years, I tried to add some light to the manger (because it is pretty dark) & finally this year, got one of the popular battery-powered LED short strings & hid it among the straw. It’s one of the first items I display each year & plan to do so for many years to come.
