Patent/Country
I assume this is Yugoslavia since the IMC is “5”.
Mexican Jiminy stems don’t list a patent # or IMC.
Patent/Country | |
| Jiminy was made under 4 patents (2,620,061, 3,410,455, 3,845,882, and 3,942,683) and in 4 countries (Austria, Mexico, USA, and Yugoslavia). The Mexican stems don’t have a patent #. So far, the patent/country/IMC combinations that I know of are 2.6/Austria/2, 2.6/Yugoslavia/V, 3.4/no country/5, 3.4/Austria/2, 3.8/USA/9, 3.9/Austria/2, and no patent/Mexico/no IMC. | |
| For a great discussion of the differences between patents, see (Yahoo! Groups : PEZheads Messages (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PEZheads/message/26115). | |
| I have found some Jiminy's that have the patent / country / IMC on the wrong side (Jiminy's left). I asked Dave Welch if this was common. He told me that stems are easily switched so collectors don't seem to care. | |
