1970s Front Porch Toys Jack in the box!

Profile picture for user SaraAnn

Description

I found this at Goodwill in Portland, Oregon today!! I found a couple on ebay and found out that it is a 1970s Front Porch Toys Jack in the box. The ones I saw online had the logo on the bottom though (cabin/porch which says 'front porch toys'). This one has no logo on the bottom but does have front Porch toys written on the inside bottom (you can see it peaking out on the picture of the inside of it). It's in pretty good condition except for a part of the fabric around the spring being rippped a bit.

Please I want to know as much information as anyone can give me about this along with how much it is worth.  

 

Thanks!!! :)

Re: 1970s Front Porch Toys Jack in the box!

Hello! My grandmother hand-painted the faces on Front Porch Toys in Lake Oswego in the late 70s until 81. No idea what it's worth, but if it's available I'd love to have it.
