Edward Gorey fabric Collegiate Frog in a Letter sweater
Vintage Edward Gorey bean bag, The Collegiate Frog doll. These were manufactured by The Toy Works in 1978. Approximately 4.5" wide.
Based on the artwork of Edward Gorey, this sewn fabric Frog is lovingly stitched and filled with small pellets. From the Goreyana website, "The Toy Works Frog is a collegiate fellow and can be relatively difficult to find. Decked out in a letter sweater and tennis shoes, this amphibian is ready for the big game. The frog is approximately 7.5" in length when laid flat and has button eyes. The frog is the most acrobatic of the animals. He can lay flat, drape over the edge of chair, or sit up to watch the game."
Along the back side of left leg, Edward Gorey is printed along the outer edge, with the year, 1980. Some very light foxing is visible on the fabric, this is normal with the age of it.
Over all, The Frog is in very good to excellent used condition.
