A kitsch little sports pixie is ready to play — hand-painted porcelain in a bright red suit, yellow bat in hand.

  • Maker: Unmarked (sold at McCrory's)
  • Materials: Porcelain, hand-painted
  • Dimensions: Approx. 2.25 inches tall, 1.5 inches wide
  • Origin: Japan
  • Era: Vintage, 1950s
  • Condition: Excellent, pristine — no chips, scratches, or damage. Please review photos closely before purchasing, as all sales are final.

Though unmarked, its fine detail suggests bone china craftsmanship, and it still wears its original McCrory's five-and-dime store label — the beloved chain founded in 1882 that competed with Woolworth's for over a century before closing in the early '90s.

A fun, nostalgic addition to a seasonal display, a sports fan's collection, or a curated shelf of vintage kitsch.

Small pixie and elf figurines like this one were a popular novelty gift category throughout the 1950s, often sold inexpensively through five-and-dime stores like McCrory's.
