Steinbach Santa Nutcracker S702 (14") w/ Box, Tag, Village & Original Stamp

Overview Up for your consideration is a beautiful Steinbach Santa nutcracker, likely model S702, standing about 14″ tall. This one is fully loaded — he comes with his robe, sack (with elves), gift, village base, Christmas tree, cookies in hand, and additional sticks. The original hang tag is still attached. Underneath, the base is stamped "Original Steinbach Volkskunst from West Germany," and—wonderfully—still bears a retailer price tag of $144. The original box remains intact, complete with tab and factory stamp (though masked with tape, which you can see the model "702" through). The box shows normal age wear and has masking tape, which I haven't removed to avoid further damage. Condition & Notes • Cosmetic condition is excellent: no visible cracks, chips, or repairs. • Some minor age wear (normal for a vintage collectible) is expected and disclosed. • The masking tape on the box is original to its storage history — I did not remove it to preserve the structural integrity. • All accessories (village, sack, sticks, etc.) are included and intact. • Measures roughly 14" tall; base footprint ~ 6.5" × 3.5". Why This Is a Great Find • Steinbach Santas are highly collectible — model S702 is a known, documented variant (you can see comparable listings). • Having the original box and tag greatly enhances collectibility. • The original price tag of $144 gives a nice provenance touch.
