Friday comix - FAO Schwartz's revival

Posted on 06:38 by Unknown

"Recently, Mr. Schmults has placed a big emphasis on the FAO Schwarz-created toys -- commissioned and branded by the company. Meticulous by nature, Mr. Schmults is determined to make sure they are durable and desirable -- and not sold anywhere else." - The Wall Street Journal, "Reviving FAO Schwartz"
