Uncle Wiggily
Description
How can this button be dated? Is this a French White? This bunny takes after the Uncle Wiggily Longears.
Background/Story
Uncle Wiggily Longears, an engaging elderly rabbit, is lame from rheumatism. Wherever he goes, he always relies on a red, white, and blue crutch—described as being “striped like a barber-pole“, or, in later episodes, “his candy-striped walking cane”, with spiral red-and-white striping like a peppermint candy stick.
