Zep Miniature Prototype By Alma
Scott (the first Maryland Gathering Host) was hoping to have these made for the 4th Maryland Pez Gathering. He reached out to Alma from the Netherlands used to create miniature pez dispensers, and she did such a great job!
Unfortunately ZEP was so difficult to make that Alma is unable to “mass produce” them for the Gathering. So this is a ONE OF A KIND creation. Thanks to Alma for trying and subsequently donating this beautiful miniature dispenser to Scott.
