So as a kid, I was HUGE on Dalmatians. My entire room was Dal-themed and practically every item I owned was Dalmatians in some way. I kept a lot of it for years, and just recently I downsized a bit and got rid of some of the bigger items. So the picture below is outdated, but I did own all of these things and more at some point. I'm not sure how big the picture will get, but there are stuffed animals, plastic figures, a snow globe, a backpack, McDonalds toys, trading cards, the games, pins, a clock, a watch, a polly pocket set, and a piano music box. I just bought a bunch of 101 Dalmatians stuff from eBay, so when they come in the mail I will take pictures and show my new collection!

Ooooooooh, I see that you have some things, in your Collection, that even I do not have, such as the Music Box, The Snow Globes, the Bag, The Clock and the Purse!
I also notice, two copie of the; "Animated" Storybook, too!
May I ask, what Song the Music Box played?

OMG! I remember my school bag was just the same in my first class of elementary school. But I also had a pajama anyway, with Penny or Lucky on it I think when I was 4-5 years old.

Both the music box and the snowglobe play Cruella de vil! Exactly the dame version, come to think of it. And sadly, those are two things I no longer have . Yes, two copies of the Animated Storybook! One is in a platic jewel case, and the other is a cardboard fold out that has installation instructions etc. I should take some pics of it...

Wow that's a cool collection. I recognize a few of the Dalmatian toys from the 1996 101 Dalmatians McDonalds set (I also had the Pongo and Lucky from the 1991 happy meal set and three of the flipcars from the 1997 101 Dalmatians the series set)

Cool pic, I still have snowglobe. and possibly the Pongo toy, from McDonalds, another toy that I have is the one that's like a gift and you have a pup on top of it.

I scored another great find thanks to eBay. From what I could gather, these are Swedish bubblegum cards from the 1950s to 1980s. The cards came 4 to a pack with packs of gum, and featured more than just cartoon characters. There were also singers, bands, actors, comic book characters, and of course, Disney characters. Sometimes the cards were numbered, and sometimes they weren't. The backs of the cards are blank, with nothing on them. I cannot find out just how many dalmatian cards there are for sure, but I have in my possession 9 varients, so there were at least that many. As you can see, there are two cards with Pongo and puppies that are very similar, the difference being the background. Also, one of them is numbered, and the other is not. There is also a "Lucky" card whose art style is a bit different than the rest. It makes me think that there may be others out there.

I recognise two of those Images. The one of Lucky, hnding from two tables, and the one of Lucky standing on his Hind Paws. That's from a Story, in Walt Disney's Classics Golden Books Series called; "Lucky Puppy", which gives Pongo & Perdita's Pups some rhyming names (Case in point; Patch & Latch, Freckles & Speckles), though, they also did have one Pup, to mtch with Pepper, called; "Salter", so that is an intrigung name for one of Pongo & Perdita's Pups.
Though, Swedish Cards, Eh? Those do look intriguing, and I don' think I have seen these Cards, before.
I like the research, you did on these Cards, too. May I ask, Do You Know which Gm, the cards are from?

Ahh, I see about the artwork on the two Lucky cards. I think I just bought that book too from eBay, so I'll have a look at it when it comes.
Unfortunately no, I'm still trying to find out more about them. My best guess though is that the brand of cards are "Topps", which is a huge name is trading cards. But yeah, I honestly have no idea what gum they came with.
