Vintage Mickey printables

Page 42 was the page number in the German weekly comic "Micky Maus" where a paper craft could be found.
I downloaded the marionettes of Mickey, Donald and Goofy. (The index only mentions Donald but all 3 were there.) Also an advent calendar from 1976 and some Christmas cards. The pages are zipped .jpgs. There often wasn't a preview to see what I was getting...sort of like opening a present, I smiled with each one.
