Playthings

The experts agree: conventional coloring books only stifle a child’s creativity. But an authentic original Rembrandt etching? Now you’re talking creative! Get your crayons and fingerpaints ready! Catalogue #980984
Nobody likes to give endless piggy-back rides. But as your child will gladly tell you, it’s not a request, it’s an order! Our exclusive Piggy-Back Slave obeys and obeys and obeys. Takes a beating and keeps on obeying. (Battery may be required) Catalogue #908520985
Is your child bored with the sort of ho-hum, run-of-the-mill, everyday dollie that any parent could afford? Poshly Despotic Tots has the answer! Just look at our exclusive Fashion Maria Doll. Exquisitely hand-crafted from a unique gold–platinum alloy, Maria moves and insinuates herself into any labor union — with uproarious results! Perfect at bedtime, Maria will have a monopoly on your Princess’ affections, and her bullet-proof breast will remind any little girl of Mummy’s more or less fond embrace. Catalogue #2330980
Boys today love action figures, and Poshly Despotic Tots has the best! It’s never too soon to start buying and collecting politicians, and nowadays Republicans have never been cheaper — the perfect opportunity for your heir’s Action Figure Starter Set! Available in talking models, too, that are programmed to amuse your child with countless classic fairy tales: “We’ll be greeted as liberators”; “Mission Accomplished”; “We don’t torture,” and many more! He may be a figure of action, but you get to be the Decider! (Bribes — er, “campaign contributions” — not included.) Catalogue #9249-R
For your youngest dependents, our new Tickle Me Shlomo doll delivers top dividends! Tickle him, he laughs; prick him, he bleeds. What’s our amazing hi-tech secret? No secret, actually. Shlomo’s not really a doll at all. We just picked up some old Jew in the street. We can get another for you, easy. We know somebody in the trade. Catalogue #3240450
Another great plaything is this beautiful piece of Bric-à-Brac. We don’t know what your kids will do with it. Who cares? The perfect conversation piece at your next tea party. Catalogue #5645908
And speaking of parties, what would a children’s party be without a piñata? Poshly Despotic Tots has a wide selection of outstanding Piñatas. (Subject to availability) Catalogue #777439
