Joel Siegel's Popeye Toys

Among the many toys that are up for auction, there are several interesting Popeye toys from the 1930's - 1940's. I've already written a previous post about the Late Joel Siegel. You might want to visit this post that is the one before this one. Mr. Siegel was an exceptional man whom you might have seem on Good Morning America on ABC years ago.

Popeye the Sailor Man is a fictional cartoon character created by Elzie Crisler Segar. The character first appeared in the daily King Features comic strip Thimble Theatre on January 17, 1929, and Popeye became the strip's title in later years. The character has also appeared in theatrical and television animated cartoons.

up and masked both for the very cold weather, and for Covid.
