My Ma and john berzaks wife marge one year for Halloween dressed up like tivvy banks. So I’m surprised to here there from Finland or danish cause I thought they were made here in Roseville Michigan. <br />Also I have a picture of them dressed up as the tivvys. <br />Ron M Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205748486863078023.post-21262564800542174832011-09-10T13:27:47.638-07:002011-09-10T13:27:47.638-07:00Not too much.

When TV Times wanted to feature Tivvy in a weekly strip producer George Moreno would scribble up an idea and give it to Bill on a Friday, for him to ink up over the weekend.<br /><br />George made a series pilot (stop motion) featuring the Fauni Trolls, but was unable to sell it.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08141250556479971763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205748486863078023.post-44176718384573835272010-05-31T12:01:18.324-07:002010-05-31T12:01:18.324-07:00Let us know if you ever come across the stuffed tr...Let us know if you ever come across the stuffed troll version!Gonked, Glooked and Slurped!http://gonkedglookedslurped.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205748486863078023.post-17915083625501608982010-05-31T10:16:27.198-07:002010-05-31T10:16:27.198-07:00I've seen those Fauni Gonks from Danish and Sw...I've seen those Fauni Gonks from Danish and Swedish banks, too.Marcnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205748486863078023.post-11555270521279902432010-05-28T13:55:03.835-07:002010-05-28T13:55:03.835-07:00Yeah, I usually do, trust me...but I'd already...Yeah, I usually do, trust me...but I'd already spent all my money that day.
