porcelain Pogo made by the famous Wade factory in Ireland is the most
difficult for collectors to find. It is also the most expensive. This
ceramic figure was created in 1959, and Walt Kelly did not like it at all.
He broke the heads off the ones that were sent to him. Click the photo to

sometimes found new in the box. Poynter figures are rare. Top photo, from left they
