CASPER (Harveytoons / Paramount) jack-in-the-box
This beautiful,
uncommon find is an 11.5" metal jack-in-the-box showing Casper wearing a
white shirt bearing his name in red lettering. He has wobbling eyes and a
wobbling mouth that jiggle when he pops out of the box. The musical and
pop-up mechanisms work just fine. The jack-in-the-box has colorful
graphics showing Casper playing his own personal getar, Baby Huey singing,
Katnip dancing while Herman plays the bass, and Little Audrey and Buzzy prancing
along. The litho is in NM+ condition and is probably one of the nicest
examples of this item that we have ever seen. Best of all, it comes with
its original box. The box has some tears and clear tape repairs, but is
present and in Fair condition. This item was manufactured by Mattel in
1961.

CASPER (Harveytoons / Paramount) figural votive candle holder
This item is a genuinely rare find. It is a
6" ceramic votive candle holder, showing Casper wearing a black skeleton
costume. He stands with both arms raised and smiles as he looks off toward
his right side. In front of him, there is a beheaded jack-o-lantern, and
that is where the votive candle is placed. The original, unused votive
candle is present with this item. Other than being in mint condition, what
also makes this item quite rare is that it was a salesman's sample, and it
retains its original sticker indicating that on the underside of the white
base. There is no indication on the item as to who made it or when it was
manufactured, although it is probably a mid-1980s piece.

manufacturer's tag, and his original colorful cardboard hang tag. He was

white Pepsi logo between the two Casper images. This item was manufactured
during the mid-1970s as a promotional giveaway at fast food restaurants
featuring Pepsi products. The glass retains all of its original glossiness

Casper images (shown in the photograph), on the leg, leaving this item in NM+

CASPER (Harveytoons / Paramount) bank
This is a
12.5" vinyl bank showing Casper standing on a red mound, waving with his
right hand and holding a red money sack in his lowered left hand. The
bank's coin slot is located on the back of Casper's head and the original
cut-out area beneath the base has never been touched. It appears that this
bank was never used. It is in NM- condition, with a few small spots of
minor paint loss on the back of the base and the back of the money sack being
its only flaws. About 80% of the original copyright sticker remains intact
on the front of the red base on which Casper stands, and it is faded. This
item was manufactured by Transogram in 1967 and is a pretty rare find,
especially unused and uncut. By the way, Casper's white areas even glow in
the dark, to add a special extra dimension of fun to the bank!

CASPER (Harveytoons / Paramount) wooden pull-toy
This
beauty is a wooden pull-toy of Casper the Friendly Ghost, probably dating back to the
later 1950s or earlier 1960s. When the cord is pulled, the toy's red wooden wheels
roll smoothly across the floor and Casper's arms alternate between which goes up and which
goes down, alternately hitting the metal bars on top of the pull-toy's surface to give it
a clanking xylophone-type sound. The two red wooden parts that strike the metal bars
are somewhat different from one another (one is a hemisphere and the other is a full
sphere), so one may be a replacement piece. Both look to be around the same age,
though, and it is possible that the factory where this item was made used different types
of wooden strikers for this toy. The paper litho on both sides of the toy is
completely intact with only minor surface wear. Both sides show Casper flying in the
air beside pictures of Little Audrey, Baby Huey, Spooky, and Buzzy Crow, all of whom are
shown inside of yellow stars. This toy is 10.5" tall and 9" wide. It
is complete and undamaged, with minor wear. It is in EX to EX+ condition and is in
amazingly clean, bright condition especially for its age. It's a rare one . . . and
a gem, too!

it in EX+ condition overall.

Each one is 14" tall, showing the Cat in the Hat smiling and standing with his hands
entwined above his stomach. Although the only copyright marking on these items is
for the year 1955, in all likelihood, they were manufactured sometime during the 1970s or

a white heart on it. Above her, the black-lettering caption says You

indicate who made it or when it was manufactured. Our best guess is that
this is a 1980s item. It is undamaged and has a small manufacturer's flaw
in the upper right-hand corner of the wood (visible in the photo) and an area on
the right side of Cathy's head where the original price sticker's glue residue
has been difficult to remove. (Some of it came off with a gentle cleaning;
some of it remains. We did not scour this item any further, though, for
fear of damaging the shiny litho veneer.) In addition to the metal loop on
the top of the plaque, which enables it to be hung on a wall, Cathy also has a
fold-out cardboard stand in back, enabling her to be placed upright on a desktop
or tabletop.
