Department 56 is a brand of collectibles. They specialize in Christmas Collectibles, but they also make the Just Ducky line of ducks and duck-themed items. They have a chain of stores, but there aren't that many of them. A lot of independent stores also carry some of their products. Here's a link to their website: Department 56 Website Also, check out Paige's Place on the Favorite Links page. Happy Ducking!
> I've heard of certain Rubba Ducks being "Dept. 56" specials; and it seems Dept 56 has their own line of very charming duckies. Charlotte has a pretty picture of the big one in the oldest picture gallery of her collection. What puzzles me is that Dept. 56 is not a store I know of. Where do you buy these ducks? Thanks!
