PEZ in Pop Culture?
Here's to Eli for catching this one today.
The "witty" writers at the Redeye in Chicago came up with this headline for today's cover story. Let's just hope that candy doesn't fly out of his mouth. Or PEZ decides to make a dispenser out of him. I get the sense they wouldn't taste too good.

PEZ in the News
From LaughingSquid.com:
Pez Candy Inc. is suing the Burlingame Museum of Pez Memorabilia over copyright infringement. The suit, filed last week, claims that the museum deceives the public into believing they are operating under the authority of Pez and asks that the museum’s 7 foot tall replica of Pez dispenser be destroyed. The lawsuit also takes issue with the museum’s sales of toy truck Pez dispensers which had been modified with Obama and McCain logos during last years elections. The museum has been opened since 1995 and is said to be the only place in the world were you can see every Pez dispenser ever made.

PEZ Conventions: PEZamania 19
I've often heard there is no better place to spend a summer than in Cleveland, Ohio. So it's great that PEZamania 19 will be there on July 16-18 at the Holiday Inn in Independence.
This year's event will be highlighted by a new activity: PEZamania Wars! According to the event's web site:
This will be a single elimination tournament with 128 contestents. Each tournament round involves playing a game of "War" - a simple card game played by most everyone growing up. Each War game will be played head to head against a single opponent. Each round of play will eliminate one half of the total contestents until an overall winner is determined. There will be some wonderful prizes awarded to the lucky players who reach the round of eight (quarter finals) and beyond. Entry into the Pezamania Wars Tournament will be offered to the people who register for Pezamania #19 on a first come first serve basis.
Thrilling! Other events include swap meets, diceamania and children's activities. For more information, check out the check out the web site by clicking here.

PEZ Vending Machines
PEZ vending machines were used in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. The first German machines were introduced around 1954 (DWM and GWS), Switzerland followed suit, while in Austria they debuted in October 1956. The vendors were produced by DWM (Deutsche Waggon-und Maschinenfabrik, Berlin Germany), GWS (Georg Wiegandt und Söhne, Berlin Germany), Theodor Braun (Vienna Austria), and Glerios/R.Seipel & Co.
Now look what you get in vending machines...

PEZ in the News
Are you going to get a new iPod Shuffle? Well there may be a way for PEZ heads to decorate them up. An enthusiast, as noted on Technologizer.com, found out the new teeny iPod rests comfortably inside a PEZ dispenser.
So now you can jam out to your favorite tunes and show off your favorite dispenser as well. If you have multiple dispensers, you can rock a different one each day.
I knew it was just a matter of time before PEZ and iPods collided. That wonderful day has arrived.

According to a story from the Record-Journal in Connecticut, Debbie Hernandez has around 750 PEZ dispensers that she has collected over a span of 22 years.
Her loving husband made the display case for her, which also allows her to become a real life PEZ dispenser too.
As it turns out, she just likes the dispensers. She doesn't like the candy at all.
Her favs are a couple of superheroes, Batgirl and Wonder Woman and are valued as much as $150.

PEZ Patents
Oh, this is fascinating.
The patent number cannot be reliably used to determine how old the dispenser is. For example, the 5.9 Patent was granted in 1999, but didn't first appear on a PEZ item until 2002. By 2007, 4.9 patented items were still regularly appearing on store shelves. Dispensers can also be found with several non-US patents, such as the German "DBP 818.829" (Deutsches Bundes Patent), and the Mexican "Patent Nr 141,242."
U.S. Patent 2,620,061 1952 —Pocket article dispensing container (first patent for the PEZ dispenser)
U.S. Patent 3,410,455 1968 — Dispensing Device for tablets

PEZ Characters
Toy character head dispensers were introduced in 1955, after the candy was introduced in the United States. There are over 450 unique dispenser heads with thousands of variations.
The company formerly had a general rule against creating likenesses of real people. In the 1970s, three historical figures were created: Betsy Ross, Daniel Boone, and Paul Revere which were released as part of the Bicentennial series. These dispenser heads were not made to actually look like the people they represented, but instead used generic faces with different accessories.
In 2006 a limited edition series of three PEZ dispensers were made to look like the Teutul family from Orange County Choppers. These are the first dispensers to have been made in the actual likeness of living people. The NASCAR-themed dispensers are based on the helmets of famous drivers, rather than their actual likenesses.
In 2007 a limited edition Elvis set was released featuring 3 dispensers from different time periods in Presley's life. In 2008 the first Star Trek dispensers will be released in a gift set with the 7 original series crew and the Starship Enterprise.
There are many books and websites which catalog all PEZ dispensers which have been manufactured.

PEZ Myths
Much to my surprise, my professor in class today brought up PEZ dispensers. My surprise was partially due to the fact that it is a digital products class.
He brought up that eBay was founded by a guy who wanted to buy and sell PEZ dispensers. I did some digging and it turns out that this is nothing more than an urban legend.
The site eBay was originally founded as AuctionWeb and the first item sold was a broken laser pointer for $14.83. The founder was surprised that it sold for so much and contacted the buyer to make sure he knew that it was in fact broken. The buyer acknowledged that and noted he was a collector of broken laser pointers. And thus eBay was born.
In 1997, an eBay PR manager came up with a story that the site was started to help the founder's fiancée trade PEZ dispensers for generate media buzz. And thus the PEZ myth was born.

PEZ Conventions: Pezcific
Star Trek conventions be damned! PEZ conventions are where it's at.
The PEZ collecting hobby has grown to the point where several conventions are held annually around the world. The oldest convention is PEZ-A-MANIA, which has been held in Ohio since 1991. Conventions are also annually held in Missouri, California, Minnesota, Connecticut, South Carolina, Austria, Finland and Sweden. PEZ conventions are a place where collectors and dealers can meet to buy and sell PEZ merchandise. There are also typically auctions for charity and games and contests with PEZ items as prizes.
The first one coming up is the Pezcific Coast Convention held in Los Angeles on Feb. 12-14 at the Manhattan Beach Marriott. Events include a PEZ scavenger hunt, bingo, seminars and an auction.
For more information, check out their web site by clicking here!
By total coincidence, I will be in the area then. I may have to check it out.

She has appeared in Six Feet Under, Joan of Arcadia, Weeds and Private Practice.But more importantly, she's a PEZ Head. She buys new ones whenever she can, but has not gone so far as paying top dollar for older dispensers. Maybe those will come with more fame.

Value of PEZ
I was flipping through this book today and came across this insane info about the value of some PEZ memorabilia. I found this one pineapple PEZ dispenser valued at $3,200! That's just crazy talk. So I dug up some other info.
Some PEZ dispensers can sell for large amounts as collectibles. The highest verifiable sale of PEZ dispenser was a private sale of a Mickey Mouse softhead at $7,000 between an Austrian dealer and a California collector. This dispenser was never available for sale to the public, and was a factory prototype. The high prices which some PEZ items fetch has led to the manufacturing of fake PEZ items as well. The 2006 EBAY sale of a clear 50s Space Gun for $11,000 took place but according to noted PEZ author, David Welch, the dispenser was later proven by chemical testing to be a well made fake.
So basically there is a market for counterfeit PEZ dispensers. Adam Smith would be so proud...

Mr. PEZ Goes to Washington
Quite so scaredy cat enjoyed his time in DC. Here are some highlights of his trip.
He went to the White House to offer Bush some PEZ. He figured the president would like some candy. The Secret Service wouldn't let him in.
He tried to find his congressman on Capitol Hill, but realized he is simply a constituent of the world.
He downed a martini at Off the Record, the bar in the Hay-Adams Hotel where the Obamas are staying. Of course he didn't vote in the last election because he's an inanimate object.
At the Treasury Department, he asked for a bailout. They said no.
Dino-mite! This was his favorite part of the Smithsonian. His favorite dinosaur? The stegosaurus.
On the last day, he heard Bay Buchanan speak. She was a fiery pistol!
