The 12 beautiful blues!

Collection No.17
12 vintage masks from the César company, under original license.

This collection, centered around the world of Peyo's characters, comprises three versions of Papa Smurf masks, two versions of Smurfette and her friends masks, Robber Smurf, Baby Smurf, and Clown Smurf. In very good overall condition.
This collection is distinguished by its exceptional state of preservation, rare thematic coherence, and the inclusion of pieces that have become extremely difficult to assemble today. A remarkably homogeneous lot, ideal for discerning collectors, specialist galleries, or institutions dedicated to popular culture.

There are objects that don't just exist: they carry memories within them.
These César masks, made in Saumur between the 1960s and 2000, are among them. They evoke Wednesday afternoons, school parties, the colorful shop windows of bazaars, impromptu costumes, and the bursts of children's laughter that now exist only in memory.

Each mask is a fragment of an era, a piece of light from a time when airbrushes were still used, when colors vibrated under the hand of an artisan, when plastic wasn't just an ordinary material but a promise of magic.

Some still have their original labels, others their slightly worn elastic—like a tender scar, proof that they have lived, that they have been loved.

Hanging them in your home is like opening a small window onto childhood, onto French popular culture, onto the heroes and monsters that populated our imaginations. It's creating a wall gallery unlike any other, a gallery that tells a story: yours, theirs, the story of a lost but never forgotten craft.

Light as memories, graphic like fairground posters, they hang on the wall in an instant. And because they are precious, fragile, irreplaceable, each one travels in reinforced packaging, designed to protect what it carries: a little piece of our past.
