Vintage Jabba the Hutt-Themed Erasers by Butterfly Originals

September 1, 2010

These erasers from 1983 were made by Butterfly Originals and distributed by Spindex. They’re fairly large — Bib Fortuna and the Gamorrean Guard are about 2.5″ tall. I like how each card has different art that is appropriate to the character. I’m not sure how good they would be as actual erasers, but they’re certainly interesting. I have Jabba the Hutt, Bib Fortuna, Max Rebo, a Gamorrean Guard, plus an R2-D2 eraser with Jabba and Salacious Crumb on the card.

According to the packages, these were originally scented, but I’m pretty sure any scent they once had is now long gone. I wonder what scent they used… In any case, here is a shot of some loose ones (I don’t have a loose R2):
