A brand new and really hard to find Hippo pez.
Originally part of the Kooky Zoo pez set which was released in 1997 and included the lion, crocodile, hippo, elephant and Blinky Bill.

You will get exactly what you can see in the picture; HIPPOPATOMUS blue white and hot pink with feet Pez Hippo Dispenser AND 3 Pez Candy 2 purple and 1 pink.(This was the year Pez patented the dispenser TRAY, by the way). Made in Slovenia is marked on the dispenser.
No tears on the card, no bends on the bubble,
Visitor's Center label on the back. Extra NICE!

"PEZ Candy was invented in Vienna, Austria by Eduard Haas III as an alternative to smoking. The name PEZ comes from the German word for peppermint, "PfeffErminZ" taking the P from the first letter, E from the middle and Z from the last letter to form the word PEZ. In 1952, PEZ came to the United States."
Pez dispensers were originally invented as a way to help people stop smoking, as the little device fit comfortably in your hand and could be mindlessly pressed repeatedly to give you a sugary little mint every time you wanted to reach for a cigarette. As they took off in popularity, especially with kids, the creators went wild with designs for the dispensers.
