China Specialities recreations of the highly collectible Harlequin Animals
YELLOW PENGUIN
FIESTA HARLEQUIN POTTERY CITY SOUVENIR YELLOW PENGUIN
East Liverpool, Ohio
Souvenir from the annual Hall convention by China Specialities
MAVERICK MENAGERIE GOLD TRIM ON EYES & FLIPPERS
Back in the 1940's the original Harlequin A
nimals were made for F.W. Woolworth, and almost immediately, dozens of private potteries began making copies. These copies, which were usually slightly smaller and less detailed than the original Harlequin Animals because the molds for them were cast from the glazed Harlequin originals, sold in greater numbers and for a longer period than the Harlequin originals, and today, collectors find 2 or 3 of the old "mavericks" for every original H.L.C. produced one from the 1940's.
Like those original non-HLC produced "maverick" animals, these "Maverick. Menagerie" animals are not produced by Homer Laughlin, but unlike those vintage "mavericks" these animals are FULL Size and have sharp detail, because China Specialities had an artist recreate the molds from scratch.
This recreation of 1950's Yellow Penguin
measures
3" tall x 2" wide. This is in MINT condition.
Other animals listed. I have 5-6 different
ones. Email with questions.
