Vintage yellow dog figurine eraser 50s/60s retro PLASTIC ERASER desk decor

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Rare antique eraser from the 1950s/60s, presented here as a yellow figurine of a stylized little dog. The object, in a bright yellow hue, stands out with its rectangular base topped with a dog silhouette, all molded in a single piece. The front features a legible label with "PLASTIC ERASER" in red letters on a white background, framed in yellow, which enhances the overall retro look.

The overall design is typical of novelty erasers from the mid-century period, with a playful aesthetic and a decorative approach to small school supplies. The eraser has a satin texture on the visible surface, with some signs of wear and scattered shavings at its base, testifying to past use. The object is photographed from the front, showing the entire front decor and the top of the figurine, with no indication of the other sides.

The dog's sculpture is schematic, with deliberately simplified features: floppy ears, a rounded snout, and sketched paws, in a naive style that evokes desk toys from the 50s and 60s. The whole is compact and stable thanks to its wide base.

The uniform yellow color is enhanced by the contrasting label, making this object decorative and easy to identify on a desk or in a display case. No brand indication is visible on the front, apart from the mention "PLASTIC ERASER".

This type of figurine-like eraser was common in retro school supplies, often designed to appeal to children and adorn school pencil cases. The visible used condition adds an authentic patina, appreciated for its vintage decorative aspect.

Condition: This item is used and sold as is. Visible traces of use on the eraser and shavings present at the base, consistent with an antique eraser that has been used.

Did you know? Novelty animal-shaped erasers boomed in the 1950s and 60s with the industrialization of colorful plastic school supplies. These playful objects were often produced in Japan or the United States and became emblematic of the retro aesthetic of post-war schoolchildren's desks.
