| Through cataloguing and determining values for this California Raisins collectibles guide, the authors have also provided a glimpse into the beginnings of merchandise marketing on a vast scale. The Raisins, created by Claymation designer Will Vinton at the request of the California Raisin Advisory Board in 1986, reigned in commercial popularity until the end of that decade; the staggering number of their appearances is recorded here in 20 categories (including tote bags, bedding, videos and bookmarks) and illustrated by 509 color photographs. Estimated prices are given in captions.
