1960s Enesco "Storage Barrel" Pencil Holders/Sharpeners

A series of three figural "Storage Barrel" pencil holders was issued by Enesco in the 1960s. These included Dopey, Happy, and Doc. Hand-painted glazed ceramic. A sharpener is located in the lower front. Etched text on the back reads, "Crayons Pencils". The bottom has a "© Walt Disney Productions" ink-stamp plus a foil Enesco label. They measure approximately 4" tall. Made in Japan.
