MISTER JINKS (Hanna Barbera) jointed rubber figure

  This is an 8.5" soft rubber jointed figure of Mister Jinks . . . or at least, we think that it is Mister Jinks, from the Pixie and Dixie cartoons.  It is also possible that this is one of Top Cat's feline sidekicks, but since the coloring is different from Fancy Fancy, Choo Choo, and the rest of that gang, we are assuming that he is not from that cast of characters.  At any rate, this item is grey in color, with a white muzzle, white chest area, yellow eyes with black and green pupils, and a pink bowtie.  Both arms are bent akimbo at the waist and there is a curlicue tail in back.  This item was manufactured by Bucky in 1973 along with numerous other Hanna Barbera cartoon characters (we have a few others at this time, too) and is a licensed, copyrighted item.  It has no damage anywhere on it and some paint loss on the nose, cheeks, and belly.  Overall, this tough-to-find item is in EX to EX+ condition.

MOWGLI (Jungle Book / Walt Disney) mug

  This is a 3.75" ceramic mug, white in color with a green handle.  The front has a raised-relief image of Mowgli's bust, looking slightly off toward his left side.  This uncommon find was manufactured by Enesco in 1965.  The original red-and-gold foil copyright sticker is present underneath the mug, along with the copyright information.  Other than one minor fleabite on Mowgli's nose and some very slight paint wear on the handle, this item is in great condition--near mint overall.

MOWGLI (Jungle Book / Walt Disney) rubber squeak toy

  This is a very rare squeak toy of Mowgli from Walt Disney's The Jungle Book.  The item is pale tan in color with light brown and red accents.  Mowgli is shown standing with his arms crossed, mouth open, perched against a tree stump.  This item stands 6.5" tall and was manufactured by Holland Hall in 1967.  There has been some minor paint loss on Mowgli's hair.  This generally blends in well with the item in this particular instance, since the hair color is only slightly darker than the rubber surface itself and not all of the hair was light brown in color to start with.   Although the squeaker mechanism is securely in place on the bottom of the item, Mowgli no longer squeaks for some reason.  Overall, this item is in EX condition.
