This is for a vintage Huckleberry Hound item, and it is from the extraordinarily scarce Hanna Barbera Beach Set, produced by Knickerbocker in 1959. This piece is unmarked, as the Knickerbocker markings were on the card that this piece was packaged on. The complete set included a Yogi Bear sand sifter, a Huck Hound sand mold, a Yogi shovel, and a plastic bucket. This is for the Huck sand mold in red (pieces were available in yellow and red). This measures approximately 4 1/2" in length at its longest (top of hat to outside tip of bow) and 2" to 2 1/2" in width. Top of hat feels a little rough and has two tiny black dots. Very cool piece and very hard to find!
