    Question from my wife about some old paper Wise Men displays from the 70s

    My wife wanted me to ask here if anyone has any memory or photos or even know if anyone still makes something like this:

    Just like there were paper decorations that fold out and around to make 3-d pumpkins for Halloween or a turkey for Thanksgiving. Does any one remember something similar for each of the Wise Men at Xmas? She has looked to see if she can even find a picture online of what her family used to have as a kid, and comes up with nothing.

    My question is there a standard name for these type of decorations? Are they called Accordion decorations?
    I've posted a picture from the web of a turkey one for reference of what type of table decoration she is talking about.
    It's all good!

    The style is called honeycomb. Beistle made a lot of of Holiday centerpieces and decorations in that style. But I don't know if they made wisemen or a nativity. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...
