1987 City People (Set of figures)

The City People set from the Heritage Village line of Department 56 is a hand-painted porcelain figurine collection that evokes the everyday charm of urban life during the holiday season. First introduced in December 1987 (item number 56.59650), and retired in December 1990, this set depicts city-dwellers dressed in winter coats, engaging in street scene activities—such as walking a dog, carrying packages, or strolling past a vendor cart. The solid porcelain finish, delicate detailing and nostalgic styling make this set an ideal addition to a Christmas village street display, akin to 1930s-40s era urban life.
