VFA Nr. 13074, $180.00
Antique Halloween candy moulds seem to be the most difficult to find. Very few were ever made, making the hunt for an addition to the Vaillancourt line almost impossible— unless you start to look for a mold which can be adapted... This sweet little girl holding her cat seemed like a natural. So, ready for halloween, “Ghouly Girl” was born.
