Genuine Imitation Brand Fonzie
This Official Fonzie Jacket complete with “autographed photo” is the very peak of “Fonziemania” in 1976. I certainly remember being all in on that sort of thing having a shirt, a button, pillowcase and of course the Mego doll. Now, my kids call Fonzie “that guy on the pillowcase”.

Somehow though, it’s just unforgivable when you see a grown […]

What sets them apart is the breadth of licensed items they produced, take 1977 for instance where we got a variety of […]
Ayyy It’s the Fonz Bike!
Toy Fair 1977 :I would pay a million dollars to see Henry Winkler on that Big Wheel nowadays…..
