These figurines are great examples of the hobbyist ceramic movement that was so popular in the 70s, where pieces were often painted by hand at home or in local studios. The scarecrow features nice textures on his hat and "straw" limbs, while the jack o' lantern man has that classic, friendly Halloween grin. While there are a few small scratches in the paint—typical for cold-painted ceramics of this era—they only add to the authentic, storied feel of the set. They make a bright, cheerful addition for anyone looking to add a bit of 70s kitsch to their fall decor.
This set is vintage, approximately 50 years old. All measurements are close but approximate. I measure in quarter inches.
