My aunt asked me to find out about a flying house figure she purchased years ago from a man who owned a local Mobile station. It measures 10" x 10" x 4" and appears to have been repainted. Could you tell me what this figure might have been used for? Email me and I will send you a digital photo.
Thanks and have a great weekend.

Doesnt look like an oil company item to me ...more like a carousel pegasus or something. I could be wrong though.

I just went thru my Mobil collectors book and found nothing.
I am starting to think like Hubba, Is it really an oil company Item?
