Description

Just found at a Hollywood estate sale...Vintage toy Pokey is mint inside the original wrapper. The card is pretty trashed. AS SEEN ON TV on card. Created by Art Clokey (in a small town called Millington, MI.), Gumby had its genesis in a 1955 theatrical short called Gumbasia, which was a surreal short of moving and expanding lumps of clay set to music, in a parody of Fantasia. Gumby himself first appeared on the Howdy Doody show in 1956 and was given his own NBC series in 1957. Female performers (among them Norma MacMillan) supplied Gumby's voice during the initial episodes, as well as the child-like voice characterization provided by Dick Beals. New episodes were added in 1962, by which time Dallas McKennon became the voice of Gumby. Besides Pokey, voiced by creator Clokey, and his dog Nopey (all the dog ever said was "No"), Gumby's friends included Prickle, a yellow dinosaur or dragon (there are stories that establish him as dragon, and some that establish him as dinosaur - he has been known to breathe fire); and Goo, a blue thumb-type mermaid who could fly. Other characters are Gumby's mother Gumba, Gumby's father Gumbo, his sister Minga, Denali (a mastodon), and Professor Kapp. Buyer pays $8 Shipping Domestic.
