Vintage Fiberglass Pete Hawley Wall Hangings of Bedtime Kids Praying. They measures 8 1/2" square. Good condition. They show age and one will need a new hole to hang it.
Enhance your mid-century or cottagecore decor with this charming pair of vintage wall hangings designed by the celebrated American artist Pete Hawley. Originally released in 1962, these 8 1/2-inch square plaques were produced by companies like Crofton Plastics and Dolly Toy Co., showcasing Hawley’s famous "adorable tyke" illustrations that graced everything from movie posters to American Greetings cards. Each plaque features a heartwarming bedtime prayer scene: a young girl in a pink nightgown kneeling with her doll, and a young boy in blue pajamas praying alongside his faithful puppy.
These pieces are crafted from a unique fiberglass or resin material that gives the lithograph-style prints a subtle texture and a durable, lightweight feel. Known for their soft pastel tones and sweet, big-eyed character designs, these plaques are an ideal choice for a nursery, playroom, or vintage-inspired child's bedroom. Hawley's work from this era is highly collectible, capturing the innocent and sentimental spirit of the early 1960s with a kitschy flair that remains a favorite for modern gallery walls.
These items are vintage over 60 years old. While they appear to be in the very good condition stated, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
