GENERAL INFORMATION. The fourth in the Jell-O series (see SML-199), a nasty, one toothed infant rebels against his standard baby food. The 1952 ad reads, "Hey, take it easy, Junior! Here comes a big dish of shining, shimmering, grand-tasting, good-for-you Jell-O! That ought to keep you happy!"
In the photo, the baby is mounted to one of Baston's display racks that he carried with him when selling Sebastians to prospective clients.From Dr. Glenn Johnson's book, The Sebastian Miniature Collection.
