Item Description
7x11-3/8x4.5" deep cardboard box contains "A Guaranteed Mattel Talking Toy" No. 5372. ©1966 RKO General, Inc. Based on the same cartoon series as previous item #2297, this boxed set features King Kong puppet w/soft vinyl head (w/faux fur accents), corduroy/felt body w/one hand holding small, soft vinyl Bobby Bond figure and pocket on back for insertion of hand. Reverse side of box has illustrated instructions. Box remains factory-sealed w/bottom panel having square cut out as issued around opening flap w/"Open Flap To Pull The Chatty-Ring" text, allowing for buyers to try talking mechanism. This flap has never been opened and as such, we have not tested puppet to see if talking feature still works. Sold as is as opening flap could result in box damage. Box has some lt. aging (more so around flap opening) but remains clean and VF/Exc. Puppet is Mint as packaged. Scarce as sealed. Gary Keller Collection.
