Next item is a great Bakelite cat toy. In the 1930's Bakelite was an early plastic that was used for many products, crib toys being a major use. The cat is in a great cubist design.
The final two items are nice ceramic statues. The first is another Harvey Cartoon character Hot Stuff. He is a home cast statue and missing his trademark pitchfork. Next to him is a small ghost ceramic most likely from the 1940s. He has a nice wispy pose. All of these characters live in my Halloween room.
I loved reading Harvey Comics right along with my DC, Marvel and Disney comics when I was a kid. Back then I thought Casper, Hot Stuff, Richie Rich, Little Dot and Baby Huey with the written and visual puns were pretty cool.
