Retired characters


Question: Clinton, I was reading your blog - and one particular figure stuck out more than others. The one your wife is holding - I am wondering if it is available? Is it one made by you? I would love to get my hands on him! Thanks for your time! Steve

Answer: That figure is "Willie B. Starr" made by Lovik in the '80s. A variation of "Clipper". By the late '90's that mold had deteriorated beyond usefulness and the mold discarded, which means, of course, the character was permanently retired. As far as I know, that's now true of all the Lovik characters seen in this photo. Clinton
