Dept 56 Dickens' Village NORMAN CHURCH, LTD ED 2551/3500, No box

  

From Department 56's popular, original and the ONLY authentic Dickens' Village collection. The second, Dickens' Village limited edition released with a production run of 3,500 buildings. These early pieces are not of the same meticulous process in both ceramic and painting detail giving them a less professional look. Many collectors enjoy these early buildings and accessories and consider them more "charming" than the more perfected look of the currently produced items.

Many of the boxes from these early days of Dickens' Village collecting were discarded, unfortuntely. Please take care to only handle by the solid porcelain sections of the building. We recently received almost the entire Christmas in the City, Alpine Village, Dickens' Village, New England Village, North Pole, Disney Parks Village series and other Dept 56 villages from a former dealer and serious collector who took great pride in her collection. In order to list as many pieces as quickly as possible, we may just show the box/sleeve in the photos. We absolutely promise that all buildings and accessories list are in perfect, working condition with all separate attachments included.

The building is in "like new" condition without chips, cracks, repairs or other damage. Light cord and NEW bulb are included. To ensure that you are alerted to all new items as they are listed. The majority of our items are listed on consignment. These collectibles are owned by various collectors and former Department 56 retail shop owners. Unless the "Make An Offer" option is included in the listing, sellers is NOT interested in considering offers on their items. We appreciate being contacted for ANY questions, comments or concerns.
