Looks like it came in 3 sizes? And just for fun, the "Russian Rhapsody" cartoon by Warner Brothers. My favorite cartoon (of many) capturing the American fascination with Gremlins during WWII. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouhEqtC3VG8&feature=PlayList&p=D30B57CD1B076E6A&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=101 From Wikipedia: "The notion of gremlins was first conceived during World War II, when mechanical failures in aircraft were jokingly blamed on the small monsters. Gremlins entered popular culture as children's author Roald Dahl published a book called The Gremlins in 1943 based on the mischievous creatures."
