SAW THESE AT A LOCAL AUCTION AND CAUGHT MY EYE. THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLETE CARTOON CHARACTER PUPPETS AND A FEW HEADS TO BE MOUNTED. WILL BE GOING TO AN AUCTION FOR SURE FRIDAY. VALUE PROBABLY NONE BUT I LIKE THESE. DATED 1961 TO 1978. ANY INFO ABOUT THESE WOULD BE APPRECIATED. JUST WANTED TO SHARE A FIND THOUGH I MAY NOT WIN THEM.
This is driving me crazy. I had a bunch of these..so that meant they were give-aways or came with a product. Someone might remember this. I am thinking these came with the kids bath bubbles. The head was the top of the bottle, and the plastic body was wrapped to the bottle? I remember wanting bubble bath stuff every week for the heads of these things I swear.
