Item Description
Lot of two. First is 4.75" tall Fun-E-Flex-like figure w/very interesting story. Complete w/"Micky" (note spelling) label on chest. These were produced by Performo-Toy Co. and distributed by George Borgfeldt Co. The patent for this toy was applied for Aug. 17, 1926, predating Disney's Mickey by two years. This is all noted on the original label on one foot. This toy was sold from 1927 to 1931 at which time Disney filed a lawsuit and the courts ordered Performo-Toy to stop all production of these toys and destroy any existing stock despite coming before Mickey Mouse. Lt. aging but Exc. Second is 7" tall wood jointed figure w/fabric ears. Unmarked but 1930s and possibly by Jaymar. Moderate scattered wear to head but overall remains glossy. Fine. Neat pair.
