    mailer box 923-1630

    ok I have a mailer box that go's with a figure I own. The box is 923-1630.
    Now here is the problem I took the figure out of the box abut 5 years ago and now I don't rember what figure it was. A voice in the back of my head says it was a ape figure. This is a mint box with the plastic bag still with it as well as the small plastic bag for little parts.
    923- is imprinted on the box 1630 is hand written, this is on 3 sides of the box.
    923 must be the line number and 1630 must be the figure.
    If anyone can help me reunite this box with the figure it would be great.
    I'll try to add a photo later. my computer is rendering a home movie from 1964and is running very slow.

    The 923 means it's from JC Penney,
    although I can't confirm the identity of the figure.

    Perhaps Benjamin will chime in with the answer.

        Might be a western figure. I have a Wyatt Earpp in a mailer box and his number is 923 - 1325. Being the smaller bag is with the plastic bag that went over the figure gives me an indication that it may be a Western Figure. Hope that helps.

                Sitting Bull looks like he starts with the 1600s. I could be wrong.

                    I had to look it up. JP is right; 923-1630 is Wild Bill Hickok from the 1974 JC Penney catalog.

                      OK so where the heck did I put the figure. Would be my luck if I could find the box but not the figure.

                      This also shows how great the museum is as a resorce, look thru the pages and you can get an answer. Post it and get it confermed. Thanks guys
