1950s Tin Lithograph Child’s Dish Set – “Pony Tail” Cartoon Plates, Japan Export (6 Pc)

This vintage 6-piece child’s dish set features the mid-century cartoon character “Pony Tail,” a playful ponytailed girl depicted in four unique illustrations across square and round tin litho plates. Produced in Japan during the 1950s postwar export boom, these dishes were part of a larger playtime set designed to mimic adult tableware in miniature form.

Set includes:

• 4 square plates (approx. 4¾" x 4¾")
• 2 round dishes (approx. 3¼" diameter)

Each piece is unmarked on the reverse. The graphics remain bright and vivid, with light surface wear, edge scratching, and minor rust typical of age and play.
