Dickens Village lot of 10 - 5 buildings 5 accessories The Dept 56 lighted houses and accessories have won the hearts of many, mine included. The warmth and charm of the Dickens Village has provided my family and me with years of fun setting up the display, and a lifetime of cherished memories. T are so many little details to be discovered in these pieces, and each year more little treasures were found. Great start, great addition, great gift........you will love this village. All of the buildings and accessories come in original packaging and include light cords w applicable. All pieces are in excellent condition (some never displayed) with no damage that I can see (some dusty) and with no repairs made. Some of the outer sleeves show their years, and some are in just very good condition. In any event, the packaging continues to serve the purpose of protecting and identifying the contents. This combination of buildings and accessories displays the wealthier side of Dickens Village. What Dickens collection would be complete without the presence of the man himself, as well as the home he lived in for many years? This auction has both. Gad's Hill Place - this is the 6 th edition in the Dickens Signature series limited to one year's production, 1997. When Charles Dickens was a boy, he often passed by Gad's Hill. He loved this stately home, and promised himself that he would one day live t He kept his promise. Like new condition. Special box has slight wear. Orig $98 Dursley Manor - 1995 - 1997 - another 3 story stately brick manor in beautiful beige and brown with black roof. Huge bay window on side. Three dormers with 3 chimneys. Grand front entrance with roof covered pillars rising 2 stories high. Covered side entrance to protect residents and visitors disembarking from their carriages in bad weather. Like new condition. Sleeve shows wear at edges. Orig $50 Holy Name Church - 1995-2003 - This is listed as a Christmas in the City piece, but suits this setting perfectly. A magnificent structure, with high rising golden dome with cross, beautifully stained glass look windows, double wooden entry doors, with a statue of the Virgin Mary high above. Obviously, a church supported by a wealty congregation. Like new condition. Outer sleeve shows some wear. Orig $96 Boarding & Lodging School # 43 - Attended by young Scrooge, this red brick building combines a fortress like solidity with an elegant appearance, befitting the sons of the well-to-do. A 3 story structure with gables, coping, matching chimneys, and rooftop balustrade cupola. Like new condition, sleeve shows wear and some staining on one side. Orig $48 Kings Road Post Office - Issued 1992 - Stone 3 story with a semi circular turret-like two story window area. Roof covers entry door. Triple flue chimney off back of building. Like new condition. Outer sleeve shows wear. Orig $45 The accessories: A Christmas Carol Reading by Charles Dickens - This set of 7 pieces is number 15,699 of 42,500 made in 1997 (which in my opinion leaves about ¾ of the Dickens Village collectors without this "must have" accessory). What would the Village be without Charles himself being present. In the photo, I position C.D. on the steps. You can have him walk about wver you wish. The set is mint in original green special box and foam, also in very good condition. Orig $75 Tallyho - 1995-1998 - set of 5 in like new condition in original pkg also in very fine condition. The aristocracy ride to the hounds as they pick up the scent of the fox (poor little thing is hiding by the little fir tree). They ride guided by the whipper-in, who sounds the call of "Tallyho." Orig $50 (beautifully detailed pieces look to cost much more). Holiday Coach - 1991 - gorgeous ornate coach drawn by 4 golden brown horses. Coachman blows his horn as driver guides the horses. Several passengers ride outside. Wonder who rides inside this coach fit for the King and Queen. Never displayed. Mint condition. Orig $72 Yeoma...
