Hope that helps a wee bit.....have scanned about 45 pages of their figurines and those are the closest I've
come up with yet. Will keep an eye out for you though.

With a sticker on it showing country of origin, I would think this is a fairly recent item.  I am not sure when stickers were applied but I would guess within the last 10-20 years.

I do not think there are any "one-of-a-kind" Lefton pieces unless they are factory protoypes.
