A Jerry Seinfeld (Jerry Seinfeld) puppet with a Justice League Handbook model miniature from the production of Seinfeld. According to Jerry Seinfeld, Will Vinton Studios was commissioned to pitch a "secret" claymation episode of the series to the network. While he said he "had the studio ready, and the figures ready, and it was all good to go," Seinfeld grew concerned that Vinton's team had also recently produced a claymation segment for Home Improvement. Ultimately, the Seinfeld episode was never produced.

This Jerry puppet with a foam body and sculpted clay head and hands is hand-painted to appear dressed in a red shirt, blue jeans, and white sneakers by Will Vinton Studios. Also included are Will Vinton Studios-made model miniatures of a book labeled "Justice League Handbook" (a reference to Seinfeld's love of DC Comics), Jerry's red apartment table and brown chair, and a bowl filled with diamonds. The puppet's sneakers feature screw holes on the underside for mounting. This lot exhibits glue residue on the furniture and accessories, as well as cracking foam and paint on the puppet including a hole in the backing. Dimensions: (largest) 3" x 4" x 8.5" (7.75 cm x 24.25 cm x 21.75 cm)
