Rare Kreiss Psycho Ceramics Xmas Figurine w/ Sign Christmas Tie 1960s Japan 5"

Rare 1960s Kreiss & Co. Psycho Ceramics Christmas figurine, made in Japan. This exaggerated big-brow character shows off Kreiss’s trademark humor with a sign reading: “No — that’s not my tongue — it’s a Christmas tie!!” The figure retains its original chain-hung cardboard tag and is stamped “Psycho © Kreiss & Co” on the base. Part of the hard-to-find holiday Psycho Ceramics line, these whimsical figurines are prized by collectors for their quirky mid-century humor and bold cartoon styling.

Collector’s Note: Retains its original Woolworth’s 79¢ price tag. Very few Kreiss Psycho Ceramics survive with their store label intact, and this detail makes the piece especially rare and desirable. The Woolworth’s tag is a direct link to its mid-century retail history and adds meaningful collector value
