I bought this Hallmark "Little Gallery" pewter figurine a few weeks ago off of eBay. There are seven of the Muppets in a 1951 Studebaker convertible. I love the detail in this Hallmark item.

I found out by reading the Ornament Trader book that this figurine was never released. This is what the book says:
"The sculptor of this unique Muppets in a 1951 Studebaker convertible was Duane Unruh. Unruh carefully sculpted this figurine. The sculpture was cast in the finest pewter and delicately antiqued to highlight this figurine. This plaque was cancelled before it was tested, 8/5/80".
My Muppet plaque has the saying, "Welcome to the Winner's Circle". But if you look at the book cover, that plaque says, "There's No Such Thing As Too Many Friends". Does anyone know anything about this other one?
Can you find all of the Muppet characters in this Hallmark plaque?
