Give ’em the Finger

Sorry. We meant fingers, as in Finger Puppets. Manhattan Toy, Minneapolis, began pitching its line of hand-crafted cotton and velour digit-decorators in the promo market last year. They’re light enough for use in on-pack or direct-mail programs, fancy enough to work in a value premium program, and cheap enough (wholesale unit price ranges from $2 to $2.75, but is lower on quantity orders.) to suit just about anything else. The menagerie boasts more than 30 animals, bugs, and flowers, which gives it continuity potential as well. Call Doug O’Leary at 1-800-541-1345, ext. 827.
