Classic Comic Characters #1: Krazy Kat Statue
Classic Comic Characters #1: Krazy Kat Statue
In 1944, King Features and Farina Cereal teamed up to produce an amazing set of advertising premiums featuring famous comic strip characters. They have come to be known as "syroco" (after their manufacturer) figurines, and are now highly prized by collectors. Produced under license from King Features, Dark Horse's new editions will feature characters never produced originally, such as George Herriman's Krazy Kat, recently named by The Comics Journal as the #1 comic strip of the century. The statue, created in 3-D, measures 4 1/2", and is sculpted in the original style. Extremely limited to only 550 numbered pieces, the statue comes carefully packaged in a special litho-printed full-color tin box. Also included is a certificate of authenticity, a Krazy Kat booklet, and a vintage-style pinback button of the character. This premiere offering is sure to be snapped up by collectors around the world. Don't miss out on this opportunity to own a piece of the comics medium's history and its future!
