CRUNCHY Nabisco Cereal All Smiles Blue Plastic Spoon Sitter Spoonman 1959 OOAK

Description

There's not another one just like him.  Inside the boxes of Nabisco Shredded Wheat Juniors of the 1950s could be found cereal premiums created by John "Wally" Walworth, creator of Casper the Friendly Ghost and many promotional toys including Cracker Jacks.  The spoon riders or spoon sitters called the Spoonmen Spacemen were popular and named Munchy, Crunchy, and Spoon Size.  Over the years, the same generation who grew up with the Spoonmen retained an affection for the little guys, making them collectibles today.
This Spoonman is a Crunchy and, even with his various injuries, he is a valuable keeper.  In a terrible spaceship crash in New Mexico, this Crunchy lost his left arm and his antenna and the fingers of his remaining hand were crushed under debris.  He has been detained at Area 51 until now, finding his way onto eBay.  He is made from Terran plastic, has a notch for the spoon, and is a powder blue.
