Collection Of Playhouse Kitchen Items - PEE-WEE’S PLAYHOUSE (1986 - 1991)


A collection of Playhouse kitchen items from the children’s television series Pee-wee’s Playhouse. The group consists of a tin TV tray with fold out legs and a mid-century illustration of Poppa Bear surrounded by animals, the Playhouse's clear glass cookie jar with hand-painted art and original frosted animal cookies, a blue ice cube tray with multicolored acrylic ice cubes, a Christmas mug with Santa Claus filled with simulated ‘hot cocoa’, a green dinosaur mug, a selection of fridge magnets, a red tin cookie container, a tub of iodized salt with a hand-written label reading ‘The PLAYHOUSE Salt’ affixed, an egg-shaped wind-up toy with a chef’s hat, a ceramic white, black, and red chef jar, a green rubber monster head toy, a floral red oven mitt, and a green plastic spiral straw.

These pieces are in excellent condition overall. However, some magnets are decorative shells and the magnet itself is not present. The egg-shaped toy is missing a leg. Also, the cookie jar is still filled with cookies that are original to the production, and they are not safe for consumption. Pee-wee Herman, the fun-loving, child-like alter ego of Paul Reubens, spends his days in a house known as the Playhouse. These items appear as on-set decoration in Pee-wee’s kitchen over the course of the series.

Dimensions: (largest): 5 ½” x 16 ½” (14 cm x 42 cm);

(smallest): 1”x 2”x 2” (2 ½ cm x 5 cm x 5 cm)
