MERLIN THE MAGICAL MOUSE (Warner Brothers) mini Goofy Gram

    During the early 1970s, R. Dakin Company released a series of Goofy Gram figures of the Looney Tunes characters, with each character standing atop a faux-marble base with some clever saying that was apropos for that character.  Around that same time, the company released a smaller number of mini Goofy Grams--similar in style but smaller in size when compared to the Goofy Grams.  These are MUCH harder to find nowadays, and this nearly-7"-tall vinyl figure of Merlin the Magical Mouse is one of them.  He is shown wearing a white shirt, a black bowtie, and a maroon jacket.  In his left hand, he holds a blue wine glass and stands atop a white pedestal that says "I'll drink to that!" in black lettering on the yellow paper decal.  This item is free of damage and has minor paint wear on Merlin's black top hat and on his nose.  The decal is intact but somewhat crinkled.  Overall, this rare item is in EX+ condition.   We also have his Tweety counterpart in stock at this time, along with several of the full-sized Goofy Gram figures.  In the image on the right, you can see that we also have one of these items in stock with its original box.  The mini-Goofy Gram figure itself is in NM+ condition; its box has considerable wear and some corner tears, leaving it in VG- condition, although it is completely intact.

MERLIN THE MAGICAL MOUSE (Warner Brothers) Christmas ornament

    This is a hollow, lightweight, blown-plastic Christmas ornament of Merlin the Magical Mouse.  He has a grey flocked body, blue eyelids (go figure!), a red vest with a white button, and a red top hat.  As you can see in the picture, the left eye has come unglued from Merlin's head, even though the item is in mint condition and has never been removed from its original package.  This is typical of the items in the set from which this item came, since most of them seem to have lost eyes, clothing, or other body parts over the years due to drying-up of the glue affixing the various parts to the other parts.  Merlin stands 4" tall and was made by Liberty Bell Christmas in 1978 as part of a large collection of Looney Tunes characters. (We have several of the other items from this collection in stock at this time, too.)  The header card shows images of Porky Pig, Speedy Gonzales, Petunia Pig, Merlin the Magical Mouse, Yosemite Sam, and the Warner Brothers shield.  Originally, this item sold for $0.99 at Rickel's hardware stores . . . based on the original price tag, which remains on the top of the header card.  As you can see from the image on the right, we also have one of these items loose, without its original package.  That item is in near mint condition, with one spot of flocking missing from Merlin's left foot.
