Item Number: 11K-41428-0 (Old)/1200913 (Current). Ladle: Jane's holds a ladle made of brass and painted silver. First time the Walt Disney Classics Collection released a scene prior to the film's release.
The Classics Collection started in 1992 with three scenes, Bambi, Cinderella, and Fantasia's Sorcerer Apprentice. Many other series have since been introduced. Some figurines are limited, and some have been retired. Some of these figurines have risen high on the secondary market. The figurines are made of porcelain, and the process is similar to that use to make Hummel figurines. Individual pieces are molded, put together, and fired in an oven. Then they are painted and fired again. Each figurine is marked on the bottom, signifying the year it was produced. The marks represent significant milestones in Disney history.The figurines with the first year mark are usually the most desirable. In January 1993, Disney introduced the Walt Disney Collectors Society.
The quality and appreciating values of the limited editions have attracted large number collectors. Collectors are reminded of their youth and their love for the Disney characters. Each collector has a story to tell about his or her collection.The collection has grown to be a hot collectible today. Original box with minor shelf wear unless otherwise noted.
