Sebastian Miniatures SML-062 Puritan Spinner / Puritan Candy Co Spinning Wheel

Sebastian Miniature - SML-062 - the Puritan Spinner with her spinning wheel Representative of the Puritan Candy Company Designed in 1946 and only produced in 1946, the President of Puritan Candy Co of Somerville, MA wanted a small figurine of a Puritan woman at her spinning wheel, which was the company's trademark. This particular Sebastian Miniature showed Prescott W Baston, the creator of Sebastian Miniatures, that there was a market with advertising. Hence the Puritan Spinner was the forerunner to the Jell-O series, the Shawmut Indian, Reader's Digest and the Saturday Evening Post series. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me!
