Found my family’s old Austrian PEZ home assembly collection from the late 1980s – anything special here?
Hi everyone! 😊
I recently rediscovered a box of old PEZ dispensers from my childhood in Austria and thought this community might enjoy the story behind them.
Around 1988, my family actually did home assembly work for PEZ here in Austria. These dispensers were never bought in stores or collected later — they came directly from that time. We assembled them at home as part of the production process.
Most of them are marked “Made in Austria” and many seem to be in very good condition because they were never really played with or used. I also still have several of the PEZ trucks/trailers.
I honestly had no idea if these are common or if some of them could be interesting to collectors today. Since many of you know far more about vintage Austrian PEZ than I do, I wanted to ask:
Do you see anything special, rare, unusual color combinations, or particularly collectible pieces in this group?
Thanks a lot from Austria! 🇦🇹😊
