Item Description
2.75" tall good quality white metal figure with dark copper luster. Figure is well-sculpted with both front view and back view details. Front base has stamped text "John Dille Co." with "Dille" clear and other letters weakly struck. Underside has clear "Cocomalt" stamped-in name. Figure is close match to art on the "Ardala" #14 card from the 1936 Buck Rogers card game by All-Fair. (Photocopy shown is included in the lot). Perhaps used as a Canadian Cocomalt premium or perhaps made as a prototype to be offered in 1934 along with Buck, Wilma and Killer Kane (item #1230) as Ardala was a companion villainess. Beautifully executed and Exc.
