Not Really Marx, But...Mad Hatter and March Hare Bottle Stoppers

I didn't really know what to do with these, they are certainly not Marx, but are clearly made with Marx figures. These are bottle stoppers. They are made from some sort of metal, maybe pewter. They are the size of the SP figures, and are attached to a bottle stopper with a cork bottom for sealing a wine or liquor bottle.

Pretty cool, but bizarre. If they made these two, did they make all five of SP figures?

Goebel DIS 110 - Walrus Decanter Set

The final item in the Alice in Wonderland series is the fifth Walrus in the set (what character needs 5 incarnations?) - DIS 110, the decanter set.


The set consists of a figural Walrus decanter (his head is the stopper, how cool is that?), a tray, and six cups. Interesting thing about the cups and tray is that they have their own unique numbers. Each cup is marked KL 66 B, and the tray is marked (I think) RG 108 / E - the incising on my tray is pretty faint.

Even though the numbers on the tray and cups do not match those on the decanter itself, I am certain they are correct for the set, as I've had two over the years and they were both the same. Plus the Goebel catalog page illustration shows the same tray and cups with the decanter. Perhaps the tray and cups are generic for other decanter sets made by Goebel.

And that concludes the Alice in Wonderland series of Disney Goebel figures.
