This post begins a series of unknown figures - at least to me. First up, this King of Hearts from Spain.
He's about 5 inches tall, and has his name incised on the back - Rey de
Corazones.
When I first saw a picture of this I assumed it was a knock-off, but when I actually got one I discovered that it has a Disney copyright on the bottom. I am most curious to know more about this company and what all they produced. 'Productions' copyright puts this prior to 1986, but I'm guessing 1970s, probably coinciding with the '74 re-release.
UPDATE: This company has now been identified as Palés, and they are from 1969-1984.
