In the first half of the 1960's, Cracker Jack used many plastic prizes with several small parts attached together or connected to a stem. The pieces were to be broken apart and then assembled to create the toy.

This finely detailed snap-together pull toy from 1965 has five parts: the giraffe, the base with the animal's name embossed on it, and the four wheels that turn. The front of the base has a molded loop for attaching a string for pulling the cart. It is about 1" long, 11/16" wide, and 1 3/4" tall.

Other pull toys in this series include a camel, an elephant, and a lion. They were supplied by the Gold Premium Corporation, and came in a variety of beautiful colors. Apparently Wally Walworth designed or contributed to the design of the pull toy series, since the camel pull toy is listed in A Surprise Inside! - the catalog of the University of Delaware exhibit of toys created by him.

Snap-togethers (also referred to as break-aparts and put-togethers) were discontinued after a time, seen as too difficult for the small fingers of the primary Cracker Jack market - little kids - to manipulate; and eventually child protection laws would prohibit the use of prizes with such small parts that could be accidentally swallowed.
