    Does anybody remember the little blown glass animals from the 60's. My sister has a group of them , and wondered if they are worth anything. I'm not even sure if thry has a name. Right now I'am not at a place I can research them anyway. Thought I'd give you good people a shot at helping me figure it out.
    Thanks in advance.
    Sorry I don't have a picture of one to post. Any guidance is apprciated!

    Typically they're offered in lots. You can go to eBay's Completed Listings to get an idea of where collector interest lies.

    They're lampwork, rather than blown.

    Misidentified all too often.
