His friends say he has a big head, and he<br />

does. Our German paper-mache bunny is<br />

a sporty kind <strong>of</strong> guy, with an amusingly<br />

over-sized head and wonderous googly<br />

eyes. He's even a snappy dresser in his red<br />

and yellow suit and big blue tie. Remove<br />

his head for access to the hollow candy<br />

container torso. Signed by the maker.<br />

about 1930 for a<br />

prestigious Parisian<br />

candy store, our<br />

vintage candy boxes<br />

have never been<br />

artfully pleated at<br />

the sides and the lids are decorated with pastel<br />

prints <strong>of</strong> flirtatious children and gilt lettered<br />

He's no s<strong>of</strong>ty, but he sure knows the meaning <strong>of</strong><br />

"sweet". This paper-mache candy container bear, with<br />

expressive upturned nose, in the 1930's style, has a<br />

flocked brown finish and glass eyes to give him a "real"<br />

teddy bear appearance, but remove his head and he's<br />

a hollow candy container through and through. 14"H.<br />

TB-163. $75.<br />
