Hello and Welcome to my new Blog!!
My Name is Vero Ricci and I am the Inventor/Designer of what is now know as collectible Vintage Candy Containers. My products include: Trash Can Candy (Topps) Snappy Gator (Topps), Fireplug (Fleers) Mr. Bones (Fleers) among others. All were great sellers in the 1970s.

I have decades of products and stories behind the products in my head. It's time to let them out to the world.
I will be writing about the candy containers first. There seems to be a great interest in these on the web. The toys I made for Charles Schulz will have to wait a bit.
I will also be sharing my views on art, plastic injection molding, and the business of product development in general
