SPEEDY GONZALES (Warner
Brothers) squeak toy
Here, we have a
5.75" vinyl squeak toy of Speedy Gonzales who is shown standing with his
arms by his sides, hands in his pockets. He wears a yellow sombrero, a red
neckerchief, a green shirt, and white shorts. When squeezed, this item
gives off a gentle, shrill squeaking sound. It was manufactured by Dakin
in 1976 as part of a set that also included Yosemite Sam, Bugs Bunny, Sylvester,
and Tweety (most of which are also in stock at this time, too). Speedy is
in NM+ condition, with no damage anywhere on him. What appears to be a nip
out of his sombrero is NOT damage at all. Rather, it is the way the item
was made, to give the sombrero some contour.

SPEEDY GONZALES (Warner
Brothers) posable doll
This 15" doll
of Speedy Gonzales is a very rare find! It has bendable, posable arms and
legs. Speedy wears a yellow felt sombrero that says Aariba on the
underside in black lettering. He also wears a red felt neckerchief, a
white cloth shirt, and white cloth pants. The doll is in NM+
condition. There is no indication anywhere on the item as to who made it,
and it probably dates to the 1960s. In all likelihood, this item was made
for distribution in the Central or South American market, and it is an extremely
tough item to find. Just how rare is it? Well, I (Hugh) have been a
Warner Brothers cartoon memorabilia collector for more than 23 years, and this
is only the second example of this doll that I have ever seen . . . the one in
my own collection, and now this one offered for sale. It is THAT rare!

His base says "Have a Speedy Recovery!" in black lettering.
This item is in nearly perfect condition, with some very minor wear on the black lettering

keeps its shape has worn a hole through the thin material of the hat. (The
wire is not damaged or "poking through" the material; but rather, it
has literally worn a hole in that area from rubbing against it over the
years.) Overall, this doll is in EX+ condition.

SPLINTER & KNOTHEAD (Woody

This is a
rarely-found pair of chalk or plaster wall hangings of Woody Woodpecker's niece and
nephew, Splinter and Knothead. Both of them are mounted onto the cardboard box shown
in the picture, which is how they were originally sold. He is 5.5" tall and is
shown wearing a lime green bowtie. She is just under 5" tall and is shown with
a purple shirt collar and a black bow in her hair. No copyright information is
visible on these items, probably because it appears on the backs of the plaques in the
area that is affixed to the cardboard box. In all likelihood, they date to the
1960s. He is in mint condition. Unfortunately, she has not survived the years
equally well: At some point, her pony tail broke off and was reglued. The
regluing job is a neat one, but a few small crumbs of the chalk/plaster were too small to
reglue and no longer exist with the item, leaving a few very small chunks missing.
As a result, determining the condition of this item is difficult--one is in mint condition
and the other is in Fair condition, due to the damage and repair. However you would
choose to grade these wall plaques, they are attractive, bright, colorful, and quite
difficult to find.
