BIG BIRD (Sesame Street /

This is an 8.5x10" plastic wind-up toy, shaped
like a television. It is green, with white trim and yellow handle and
knobs. When the lower knob is wound up, it advances the Sesame Street

down Sesame Street. When this movement takes place, the musical plays The
People in Your Neighborhood. Both the movement and musical mechanisms
work, although sometimes they need some coaxing (by gently holding the wind-up
knob and pressuring it backwards) to continue working. As a general rule,
the more it is wound up, the better it seems to operate. This item was
manufactured by Fisher Price, probably during the later 1970s or earlier

BIG BIRD (Sesame Street /
Muppets) shaggy plush doll
This is a
16-17" shaggy plush doll of Big Bird, who has stuffed cloth legs, a vinyl
face, yellow felt hands, and yellow yarn strands for hair and a tail. The
doll is undamaged but has been played with, with light surface soiling (not
staining) and minor wear in evidence. There are also two small surface
holes in the material covering Big Bird's legs; but these are not letting any of
the interior stuffing out, nor are they in any danger of doing so.
Overall, the doll is in EX condition. It was manufactured by Child
Horizons sometime during the 1970s or earlier 1980s.

BIG BIRD (Sesame Street /
Muppets) rolling toy -- drum and tuba
This is a 2.5"
die-cast metal rolling toy of Big Bird, whose red convertible car has white
plastic wheels. Big Bird is wrapped inside of a large silver tuba and
behind him there is a blue-and-white drum with yellow drumsticks. When
placed on a hard, smooth surface, this item scoots right along just fine.
Big Bird was manufactured by Playskool in 1987 as part of a larger Sesame Street
character die-cast car set. He is undamaged but does have some paint wear
on the car's fenders, hood decal, and horn, and on the tuba. Overall, this
item is in EX+ condition.

BIG BIRD (Sesame Street /
Muppets) PVC figure -- with guitar
This is a 3.5"
PVC figure of Big Bird, who is shown holding a red guitar with white
strings. This item is in mint, unused condition and is still sealed inside
of its original clear-plastic blisterpack and still mounted on its original
cardboard mounting card. The litho on the mounting card is designed to
resemble a theatre stage, to give the impression that Big Bird is performing on
that stage. This item was manufactured in 1985 by Tara Toy. There is
some crinkling on the blisterpack, but that is this item's only flaw.

BIG BIRD (Sesame Street /
Muppets) bank -- with piggy bank
This is a
6.25" ceramic bank showing Big Bird sitting inside of his bird's nest,
holding a pink piggy bank on his left side. The back of the piggy is the
coin slot for this bank, and the original generic black rubber stopper is no
longer present with the item. The copyright information does not indicate
who made this item or when it was manufactured, but in all likelihood, this is a
1990s piece. It is undamaged and in near mint condition, with its only
flaw being minor paint loss on the underside of the bank, where it connects with
the tabletop or shelf on which it is placed.
