Pez dispensers have been a fanciful part of American culture for generations. The simplicity of the device combined with the seemingly endless array of designs and character heads adorning them have made Pez more than just a candy. Originally marketed as a convenient mint to curb smoking habits (Pez actually derives its name from the German- PfeffErminZ), it later exploded into a unique collectible for young and old. Everything from cartoon characters to corporate mascots and even pop culture icons such as Darth Vader and Spock have topped Pez dispensers. In nearby Burlingame, the Museum of Pez Memorabilia is a must see attraction with the largest display of dispensers around!
