Festive, carnival or other entertainment articles, including conjuring tricks and novelty jokes
In plain English
This category includes items used for festivals, carnivals, or other entertainment, such as magic tricks and novelty jokes. The classification separates these goods into two groups based on their specific purpose. One group is reserved exclusively for Christmas festivities. The other group covers all remaining festive, carnival, or entertainment articles, including novelty jokes and magic tricks, that are not intended for Christmas.
