Fireman No FEET



This fireman (I guess I should call him a firefighter since fireman is so pre-2000) is another PEZ that was originally purchased for me pre-FEET era. He is not in near-MINT condition because he is missing the badge on his hat. I believe this PEZ design dates to the 1970's.
PEZ heads refer to the head on the PEZ dispenser. The stem (or body) is the same design on most PEZ dispensers. The word PEZ is stamped on both sides. The country of original and patent number is also stamped on the side. Many of my PEZ were made in Yugoslavia ("Jugoslavia"), Slovenia, Hungary although most of the new ones are made in China.
Here is a photo of another Fireman that I have (also missing his badge). His body is just a different colour so I guess he will not rate a post of his very own.
Please excuse the formatting in this post. I am working with blogger's own formatting and am still trying to work out the kinks.
