Interesting mystery (for me anyway). I did an online image search and thought this was a Vintage Rempel Diamond Pottery Pink Chubby Pig Figurine. But this appears to have a coin slot, as in piggy bank. Any help to ID would be appreciated.
4.5 Tall and 4.25 long
Here's a piggy bank. One thing I noticed is the different positioning of the eyes.

Then again...........?
Hi,
I had the same 4 1-2"H Chubbie the pig by Rempel Diamond of San Diego CA ca 1940s-1950s, but just the figurine not a piggy bank. You can see my post in our search box under Trifari pig (I did them as a combo). Since I don't think Rempel marked their ceramics & yours looks just like mine, I see no reason why Rempel wouldn't also have made this a piggy bank. They are so cute & were made to look like Porky Pig :)
Thank you for the help and research assistance. @Gillian the eBay link looks pretty like it. @Newfld, I found yours during my first hour of Google searching, it's what brought me to collectorsweekly.com. I love both the Porky Pig figurine and the piggy bank, and I'm loving this site.
Thanks again for the help, "Th-th-th-that's all, folks!" (on this one).
