Vintage Walt Disney character hand puppets featuring Pinocchio and Dumbo, produced under Walt Disney Productions licensing by J. Swedlin Inc. Professionally packed for fragile shipment. Ships next business day. Full refund if damaged in transit.
These vintage Disney hand puppets date to the early 1960s and feature molded vinyl character heads with printed cotton fabric bodies. Produced under license from Walt Disney Productions by J. Swedlin Inc. and manufactured by Grund Manufacturing Co., these puppets represent the classic mid-century era of Disney character toys. Both characters are instantly recognizable, with Pinocchio shown in his traditional red outfit and hat, and Dumbo balancing on a circus ball in the familiar animation style made popular by early Disney films.
The puppets retain their original printed cloth bodies and molded vinyl heads with bright color and expressive character detail. Vintage Disney toys from this period were often produced with imported manufacturing while still licensed through American distributors, which is reflected in the original tags marked Made in Hong Kong. These puppets were designed for children’s play but are now widely collected as Disneyana memorabilia, vintage toy collectibles, and nostalgic mid-century character décor.
Both puppets show typical vintage wear consistent with age and use, including some staining and discoloration on the fabric backs, while the vinyl heads remain intact with good overall display presence. They display well together and make a charming addition to a Disney collection, vintage toy display, nursery décor, or mid-century themed space.
