LINUS THE LIONHEARTED (???) large vinyl bank
Whether
this is, indeed, a bank of the cartoon character, Linus the Lionhearted, as the person who
sold it to us originally told us, or whether it is simply a bank of a lion, we are
uncertain. A decent case could be made either way. In any event, this bank was
manufactured in 1971 by Play Pal Plastics. It is 12.5" tall and made of hard
vinyl. The lion is shown wearing a gold crown with a red top stone. He has
light green eyes and is shown sitting and panting/smiling. There is a single spot of
paint loss on the red top stone portion of the crown; otherwise, this item has no paint
loss anywhere on it. The original stopper is present, too, but has retreated inside
of the bank when its previous owner tried quite carelessly to remove it. This
resulted not only in the stopper being pushed inside of the bank but also in some plastic
loss on the INNER portion of the area where the stopper is held in place. This is
completely unnoticeable when the item is displayed and would be unnoticeable if the
stopper were fished out of the bank's inside and put back into place.

LITTLE AUDREY (Harveytoons / Paramount
/ Famous Studios) vinyl carrying case
This
is a vinyl purse-like carrying case of Little Audrey. The case itself is 8"
tall and 9" wide. Although we chose not to scan the handle so that we could,
instead, give you a larger, closer-up image of the case and its graphics, please rest
assured that the handle IS present, 100% intact, and
undamaged. This is the Around the World with Little Audrey case, showing her posing
seductively beneath a map of the world with her own carrying case and clutch by her feet.
This item is in near mint condition, with a single 1" separation of the vinyl
on the lower left-hand corner of the front of the case being its only flaw. The
zipper works just fine and the inside of this item is in great shape. Our guess is
that this item was never used, judging from its overall appearance and condition.
Although it is not dated, the item was, in all likelihood, manufactured during the 1960s.
