ELIVS IS IN THE BUILDING!

You know the old story of "pearls in your own backyard".... There was none of the special edition Elvis PEZ to found searching for weeks from the Pacific to the Atlantic until Dad stopped in the new Walgreens on the corner of Lake and Orange Grove in Pasadena a few blocks from his office last Friday on the way home from work.

YES! SNOW WHITE

Snow White has joined her princess friends in the Cornwall Collection. She was found at a 99 cent store in La Puente.

Ebay Buy

I got lucky on a bid this/Saturday morning. (This seems to be good time for me.) My win was one of the CIRCUS SERIES (listed above), of which we have only one other The BIG TOP ELEPHANT/DUMBO. This is an old, old series and usually out of The Cornwall Museum's budget. I bid three hours before the close and no one bid after me. The seller did not label the piece 'vintage', which it is, so I got it for less than half what they usually go for.
I will reveal the character at a future date when it is officially donated to the Collection.

A children's cartoon character shelf was formed.

Room was made for the Bride and Groom Pez Pals.

Easter got it's own shelf - no longer combined with Christmas and Halloween.

CALIFORNIA BIRTHDAY PEZ

Marybeth was gifted a pair of giant PEZ for her birthday - SNOW WHITE and the PEZ PAL FIREMAN. Made it worth the trip to California, I'm sure.

These giants were picked up at a candy store in Kittering, Maine on the family trip to back East the first of January when RB and MB married. So it is fitting they have gone to a New Englander.
