Betty Boop 75th Anniversary Celebration Ceramic Cookie Jar

This is a highly detailed, two-piece ceramic cookie jar produced to commemorate the 75th anniversary of Betty Boop, likely dating to 2005. The jar features Betty Boop elegantly dressed in a large, tiered light pink evening gown, wearing white opera gloves, a silver tiara with '75' embossed on it, and holding a clear champagne flute and a purple clutch. Flanking her at the base of the voluminous dress are her classic companions: Pudgy the pup nestled on the left and Bimbo in a formal tuxedo with a top hat and cane on the right. The item is constructed of heavy-duty ceramic with a glossy overglaze finish. Notable features include fine hand-painted details on the character faces and metallic silver paint on the tiara and shoes. The seam for the lid is located at the waistline of the dress. The condition appears excellent with vibrant colors and no visible chips, cracks, or heavy crazing, though light surface shelf wear on the bottom base is typical for items of this vintage. Such pieces were often part of limited production runs by manufacturers like Vandor or Westland Giftware, known for high-quality pop culture collectibles.
