"Micky" (Mouse) Poseable Wood Figure, c. 1930, unknown mfg, 4.75", painted wood & cloth covered wire; paper label at bottom of foot says:”MICKY TRADE MARK Reg. U.S. Pat. Off. Pat. Aug. 17, 1926"; that date predates Disney (not to mention his name is spelled without the E.) It has been suggested to us that a false date was added to circumvent Disney copyright & get in on the Mickey-mania going on at the time, C9 w/ minor edge wear to back of head, unusual Mickey figure.
