Complete collection Intec yawners (41)

Complete Intec collection of 41 (stone) yawners. In the 1960s these were issued by the now defunct Company Intec, from Veenendaal, supplier to drugstores and pharmacies exclusively to the lastly mentioned; each year there were 2 to 4 models made and hand painted. After the 41st (latest) yawner, which, in contrast to the first 40, was made of composite and weighs 750 grams; the molds were destroyed by Intec itself during a farewell dinner. The other yawners weigh between 1800 and 2000 grams. Height ranges between 16 and 20 cm depending on whether there is something placed on the head (feather-hat etc.). They are in good condition. With regard to the pictures, only the last 2 yawners have also been photographed from the back and bottom. Even in the Museum de Dorpsdokter in Hilvarenbeek, the collection is not complete. So it is a unique collection. Please note for any transport costs since the lot weighs more than 85 kg. Pick-up in Antwerp or Maastricht is preferred.
