These wonderful fairy tale creatures from France, first appeared here in America in a Christmas Cartoon called The Magic Flute. They stoll that hearts of millions, including my sister and myself. We had many Smurf items during the craze, including transistor radios and clay modeling kits ( the name of these escapes me at the moment). And you just couldn't stand Gargamel and his cat ( who couldn't stand Gargamel either).
