The California Raisin Page

(lots of graphics, please be patient. Worth the wait, I think.)

Here is a shot of the guys, all together and out of their lunchbox home. They were a bit shy at first but finally I coaxed them into jammin' it up a bit. The two newer ones, the surfer and the Christmas fellow, seem right at home with their buddies. The small picture on the right is a brand new Raisin not in the original picture. I think he is an unshaded Shade. I call him the hitch-hiker.

This is a shot of a lunchbox I have. The guys live in it most of the time. The lunchbox is plastic and has a Thermos in it and was made right here in Scarborough, Ontario, within walking distance of our house.

TuxThis is Tux in a different form, as in not PVC, but plush material and bendable arms and legs.  His buddy, Shades, is shown below.

If you also collect Raisins, let me know. I have some triples which we might trade.
