There are directions all over for assembly of the cartoon caharacters and to build the theatre stage. There are the (4) mechanical puppet characters: Scrappy, Margy, Yippy, and Oopy. There is a mechanical scene with Scrappy and a Chinaman. There is the stage, background, tickets, and play money. To judge the sizes the punch out panel with the characters measures 11'' x 12-1/4''. The panels are clean, bright, and colorful. They are in excellent to near mint condition as pictured. In the first picture below you will see a small tear in the scrap area below the character parts.
