Department 56 The Original Snow Village Big League Sports Introduced in 2006 and retired in 2009. As can be seen in the pictures, this came to us with the original cellophane and paperwork still intact. At the time of listing, the lights were found to be working, as can be seen in the pictures. Most of the items we sell are in used condition, so please do not expect them to be like new unless stated as such. Colors can be tricky to photograph due to cameras, lighting, computers, and personal interpretation. They come to you in “as found” and “as is” conditions and are being described to the very best of our ability. Some of our vintage items may be from barns, attics, or estates that are dusty and possibly musty, may have pets, smoke, and have environmental conditions over which I have no control. We request that you select “Item does not fit” when returning an item that does not fit. We can fix most issues within 24-48 hours versus 7 days when opening a case. We want you to be satisfied!
