Prices Realized: Tony the Tiger

By Barbara Crews, About.com

Tony the Tiger
Tony the Tiger is one of my picks for the top ten advertising icons for collectors. After all, He's Grrreat! Tony has been eligible for AARP for a few years, but he still looks pretty darn good. Tony is depicted in plush toys and dolls, telephone, watches, cookie jars, tins, clothing, inflatables and on cereal bowls. To be picked, an icon has to be instantly recognized and Tony certainly fits that criteria.

Here are a sampling of prices from completed auctions, online malls and antique shows in my area.
