NOTES:
 
    First sold in 1952 "Ho-Jo the Bo" a rubber squeak toy was produced by Rempel Manufacturing Inc. of Akron, Ohio. Ho-Jo the Bo, came in a Knot hole fence designed box. The cigar smoking Ho-Jo, based off the lovable Brooklyn Bum character created by renowned cartoonist Willard Mullin, is wearing a black jacket, blue pants and hat, with a White vest. In 1957, Rampel introduced "Campy The Tramp," the same as Ho-Jo, but wearing a brown Jacket, green pants and hat with a yellow vest. The timing of the change might be due to the Brooklyn Dodgers move to Los Angeles. There are some Ho-Jo Toys with the yellow vests that might have been made in 1957 but placed in an older box.

 The knotted fence window box, reads '"Ho-Jo" the Bo' at the top and '"Campy" the Tramp' for the 1957 toy. The back of the box shows the respective bums watching the game through a knothole, which reads "Knot holes Reserved," and "© Fred G. Reinert" at the bottom. One side of the box reads Sanitary, Durable, washable, Harmless colors, "Made of Natural Latex Rubber." The opposite pane reads "Kiddies prefer.. 'The Little Folk From Sunnyslope"' The round squeak mechanism on the back of the toy reads "Rempel Manufacturing Akron, Ohio."
