1950s vintage Ideal Smiley cat with his mouse friend. Now, if you read the Ad it gives a bit more information about him, and back then he was $7.99!! Yup a musical cat, and he still works!! He plays, "Brahms Lullaby". He just need a bit of a wipe down, and his ribbon and tags are nice and minty. After wiping his face and the mouse carefully, they turned out nicely. I even brushed his fur, just to fluff him up a bit. I looked around for his key to turn so he plays, but instead its the mouse you wind and then the music plays! Cool! I would have known that earlier if I had read the ad I found. Haha. Holly even sent along a cute retro postcard with catalog ad! So kitschy cute! The ad shown above, I just happened, to save, because of another plush that I had sold, when I was looking up research info. on him. I'm glad I saved this ad.
I made a third jar with cute animal stickers. The cat with the bow is my latest creation. I love these little glass canisters and they look sweet holding all my fake candy cabs...
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
