Need a little figurine help...

[NHMickey]

I got these in a thrift/consignmet shop around here. They have no Disney marks on them but Donald has what is left of a small oval tag that I am guessing is Disney... Anyone ever see these before?

Nat,
they look like they might be ceramic pieces that someone painted in ceramics class. I remember making a tinkerbell when I was in 7th grade and went to a Saturday ceramics studio.
Do they have anything on the bottom? Are they just sanded flat?
sometimes if things are made in ceramics classes you had to scribe your initials somewhere on the greenware. Peggie

Anything readable on the tag??? Any color on the tag?? Do they have a shiny glaze or a bisque finish??

I'll look in my books but they don't look familar. Cute Pinocchio & Jiminy.

If they are bisques, I think they are Royal Orleans figures. Here's a link to an Ebay auction (not mine)

Mickey has the same type of face as the one you have.

I believe they were made in the later 70's through early 80's.

If they are shiny (Donald seems a little shiny), they might be Schmid figures.

No marks on the bottom... The tag has a gold look (that is why I was thinking Disney) and yes they are all have a glazed look... Looks a lot like that one on ebay...

The Royal Orleans figures are in my Tomart's book. I'll bring them with me.

Nat,

These look like ones I bought years ago, we're talking mid/late 80's in WDW.

I still have Mickey but Doanld is long gone - victim of a then 5 yo whirlwind.

See you Sunday, actually today. And this time I won't be late!!
