VTT - Cute Kittens on Squeaker Postcard and Shaped Books



The kitten postcard above has a squeaker and googly eyes inside between the picture and backing layers. It is printed in Japan and is from about 1960.

Below are the covers and centerfolds of two small shaped children's books about kittens © 1949 by Whitman Publishing Co. The Pit-A-Pat book has the artist's name, Florence Sarah Winship, on the cover. The Fluff book does not list an artist or author. Both have twelve pages and are marked 1022-5 on the back. The size is about 4" X 8" when closed.

  19. I'm surprised at how many squeaker cards are around, and absolutely amazed that most of them are in fine "working order". One of my cats stepped on one of mine last week and I had to grab it in a hurry, as it was about to become a new favorite toy!
