Ultra Rare Vintage 1950s Lefton Norcrest Mermaid Wall Plaque Fishing with Starfish MCM Japan Kitsch

Cast your nets, collectors! A treasure from the sea has surfaced—this darling vintage mermaid wall plaque from the magical mid-century 1950s era is ready to swim her way into your heart!!

Made in Japan by Lefton/Norcrest, this enchanting mermaid is perched ever so gracefully on a pearly iridescent shell, holding a dainty fishing pole with a blushing pink starfish dangling from the line—because even mermaids love a good catch of the day! Her sweet face features wide, wonder-filled eyes, rose-kissed cheeks, and perfectly coiffed hair with playful blue highlights that match her shimmering tail fin. She radiates classic mid-century charm with a sprinkle of kitsch delight.

Measuring approximately 6 inches tall by 5 inches wide, she’s just the right size to add a splash of whimsy to your vintage bathroom, beachy gallery wall, or mermaid-themed collection.

She’s a rare sea gem—truly hard to find—and while she’s had a couple tiny repairs (on the tip of her fishing pole and her wrist, view photos and especially photo 9), they’re so well done you’ll hardly notice once she’s displayed. Minimal paint wear and light crazing only add to her authentic vintage character.

Stamped “7588” on the bottom, she’s a fantastical find from the golden age of mermaid mania. These don’t come up often—especially not in this pose or style—so don’t let this sweetheart swim away!
