With Heath Ledger playing the Joker in the next Batman Movie, THE DARK KNIGHT, I thought I would post a few cool vintage Joker items. Here's a nice assortment of toys from the 1970's & 80's. The 1st piece of Joker Memorabilia is a PEZ CANDY DISPENSER that came out in 1976. The unusual thing about this PEZ was that Joker's head was made out of soft rubber & they are usually hard plastic. This baby is pretty RARE & also very cool! The 2nd item is a set of Converse Tennis Shoes that were made during the 1st Batman Movie in 1989. At the time Jack Nicholson had a pretty sweet deal to get a huge royality from the sale of ALL Joker Memorabilia....nice! The 3rd item, & probably the rarest, is a MEGO ACTION FIGURE 8" DOLL of The Joker that is on a special "Grand Toys Card" ©1979. I's shown here in MINT unopened shape. It should torture all the Mego Fans out there, ha ha ha!
