Walt Kelly's Pogo Figures
The denizens of the Okefenokee Swamp first appeared in "Animal
Comics" in the early 1940's. Walt Kelly's comic strip then
ran in the New York Star and a year later moved to the New York
Post and syndication. Pogo, the wise possum, was the star of the
strip. His contrary pal Albert the Alligator, Howland Owl, Churchy
la Femme the Turtle, Beauregard the retired veteran bloodhound,
and Porky Pine rounded out the cast of eccentric characters. Comic
books, more than 30 Pogo books, an animated cartoon and a claymation
feature followed. The strip was discontinued in 1975 two years
after Walt Kelly's death. The strip is probably best known for
Pogo's statement that "we have met the enemy and he is us."
In 1969 Proctor & Gamble distributed the six figures shown
below. The vinyl figures range in size from 4.25" to 5.5"
tall. $15.00 each
