1989BabyBoopSpringMugAs we continue our Springtime collectibles, the next thing that springs to mind is actually a Baby Boop item.  It is a Baby Boop Ceramic Mug from 1989.  The mug is 3 inches tall and pictures Baby Boop blowing bubbles at Pudgy.  She is dressed in a pink bonnet, flowers all around, it is so springtime! Printed and glazed on bottom “© 1989 King Features Syndicate Inc., Fleischer Studio Inc. All Rights Reserved Exclusively distributed by Presents P5412”.

In 2000, Wade introduced Betty Boop Springtime.  Betty has her picnic basket, straw hat, and a bunny.  As with most Wade productions, this was limited to 1000 pieces, so is somewhat difficult to find.

Hope you continue to enjoy this little springtime break.  As always, if you have any questions about a collectible I cover, just post them here!

With the Olympics just ending, and a focus on London and the United Kingdom fresh on my mind, I was reminded of  the home of one of Betty’s true collectibles.  Many of us know the name Wade from the Wade Whimsies that were included in boxes of Red Rose Tea.  Wade has been associated with fine pottery since the early 1800s.  From their factory in the U.K., they have been producing fine, limited-edition Betty Boop figurines since 1996.  What is especially inspiring about their products and dedication to quality is that they continue to produce these figurines in their U.K. facility, opting to limit the production to 2,000 pieces, and in many cases as few as 75 pieces!
