The Story of the Three Little Pigs appeared on a series of 12 postcards made by Dexter Press, © 1959. Each of the twelve postcards in the series has an illustration and text for part of the story.
My two fairy tale children's puzzles were bought at a garage sale. The first one is marked Japan and illustrates the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. The back of this puzzle is a "Crayon Board."

The second puzzle illustrates the Gingerbread Man story. This one is Made in U.S.A. by the Sifo Co., ©1962.
Last, but not least, is a charming vintage video featuring three real trained bears.

I've never seen anything like these before. What cool thingies!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun post!
ReplyDeleteThe video is so cool. I wonder how long it took them to get the bears to play their parts so well:) I adore the little girls dress and shoes too. So cute!!
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog through google. I recently started making my own postcards after joining postcrossings.com. I was wondering if anyone had made a series of postcards that when put together create a bigger picture (postcard puzzle). Little did I know that there is so many cool postcardy things out there!!!
ReplyDeleteyou should put them on a wall they are cute! found you from SOVintage Thingies Thursday !!
ReplyDeleteThe puzzles are nice, some very unusual shapes in the Gingerbread boy puzzle.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! The 3 Little pigs postcards and the puzzles are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThe film was hilarious..."course, the quilts on the beds were the best part though I liked the little girl's anklets too. :)
What fantastic postcards you always have.
ReplyDeleteDid you notice the leashes on those bears. I'm not sure what they were using, maybe a wire, but I caught glimpses of it. Those puzzles are cute!!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Susan and Bentley

ReplyDeleteTruly loved the sweet video along with my granddaughter who is home today a little under the weather. The puzzles are great. Happy VTT
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness. I love the video and I have never seen anything like those postcards. How cool.
ReplyDeleteI love the puzzles and cards. The Three Little Pigs was my favorite childhood story. Blessings, Vicky

What a great video! Love your collection.
ReplyDeleteOh how funny...that video made me laugh. I was just in TN and the biggest black bears were feasting on our leftovers in the garbage every evening just outside our cabin as we stood only 12 feet away. They didn't seem as trained and entertaining as these bears in your video though!
ReplyDeleteVery cute...I especially liked the video. I can't wait to show my 3-yr-old little girl in the morning. This is her favorite story!
ReplyDeleteHave a happy night!

That naughty gingerbread man caught my eye! He was looking for trouble and I remember it well! Thanks for sharing. My hubby lost his mom and we just returned from the funeral. I was not able to link up at Colorado Lady but still had posted my cute vintage lines. I hope you stop by. Thank you. Anne
