Diener industries made school supplies fun with figural erasers and pencil toppers, they were toys you could sneak into school. If you take a look at this catalog, you will find something you forgot you had as a kid.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Collectible erasers were the one thing a kid could sneak into School without fear of being taken away, a brilliant concept that kept the company afloat.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Many of these items were evergreens and sold for decades, I personally bought those Flintstones erasers when “Canada’s Wonderland” opened in the early 1980s.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

My grandparents owned a shoe store and exclusively used those Speedy Shoe erasers, I’m pretty sure I still have some.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Diener made different figurines over the years including Kung Fu characters and Alien Creatures that are quite collectible now.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Disney was something of a cash cow in the 1970s it seems.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Those Dinosaurs were owned by all, including me..<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Disney gang sure got around.<\/p>\n
