At the same sale where I found yesterday's die cut, I found this Beistle creeping cat.
He's a little worse for wear, but part of the $5 lot, so definitely worth it. And it was a $5 lot. I had forgotten the seller threw in the remainder for the price of one.
He appears to have some sweet morsel, perhaps a mouse, in his sights.
He dates from the 1950's and was part of a larger set that could be displayed together.
Those are super cute and I have never seen them before so are they a bit rare?
ReplyDeleteThe green ones pop up on eBay regularly, but I don't see the red-trimmed ones very often and the prices reflect that.
DeleteLove them! An awesome find.
ReplyDeleteThe earlier versions have a Warner Bros./MGM cartoon vibe to them.
ReplyDeleteExcellent observation. You are correct.
