Trick or Treat • PEZ to Eat


Trick or Treat • PEZ to Eat • this painting is sold

Deb likes PEZ. ... and Deb likes Halloween. So, naturally, Deb would have Halloween PEZ dispensers. Besides her clay pottery, she has unusual trinkets among the items in her studio. Little plastic wind-up chickens that hop and lay candy eggs, seasonal party lights, beer bottle caps featuring Rebus puzzles..... and PEZ dispensers.

The name PEZ was derived from the German word for peppermint, Pfefferminz, the first PEZ flavor. PEZ was originally introduced in Austria, later exported, notably to the U.S., and eventually became available worldwide. Despite the world-wide recognition of the PEZ dispenser the company considers itself to be primarily a candy company, producing over 3 billion candy bricks each year in the U.S. alone. Toy character head dispensers were introduced in 1955. There are over 450 unique dispenser heads with thousands of variations.

Modeling for the 'Trick or Treat • PEZ to Eat' painting are:
Skull, Pumpkin and Witch from the Halloween collection.
