One Gross of Vintage Plastic Zoo Animals
More Vintage Stuff
More Animals
More Grabbags
Originally a Shredded Wheat premium, this zoo full of animals hails from the 1950s or 1960s. On the back of each of the animals is the animals name. There are all kinds here: bears, wolves, birds, elephants and more! Each bag contains an assortment of a gross (144) individual plastic pieces. Each assortment is different.
Some of the animals come in several colors. These were originally intended as some sort of learning toy. On the back of each animal is the name molded into the plastic. When we inspected them all, we expected to find one animal for every letter of the alphabet, but no such luck. Not quite all of the letters were represented. But you can rest assured that you'll get a good mix!
Most of the little critters stand nicely on their flat bases. There might be a few that need a touch of trimming to stand properly. The back (except for the name) is flat. The front of each character is 3-dimensional and nicely detailed.
At less than 18¢ each, these are a bargain. We've seen them on eBay in smaller groups for much, much more!

More Greeting Cards
We love greeting cards and note cards so very much that we have zillions of them around the SilverCrow Studio. Some haven't even reached our website yet. So, we thought you just might enjoy a mix of over 200 cards! These are all high quality greeting and note cards. Some are even hand made and some limited editions.
Each group will be different as we have prepackaged them. There may be blank cards (note cards), birthday cards, sympathy, inspiration, graduation, friendship....and more.
If you enjoy surprises, you're sure to want a bunch of these.
Because the adhesive on the back is as vintage as the pieces themselves, we recommend that you moisten them with a sponge or cloth. Or, use archival glue or paste instead of the vintage adhesive.
