DQ (Dairy Queen) had some “similiar” as a promotional item for their “Dilly bars” in the 1970s…
Good luck on your research with this information next!

Howdy Doody is going to be my best guess.

Any tush tag that would say what company made him or what country he was made in?

There are no tags. Just a sticker on the back that says he was manufactured from “all new type material” and some registration numbers. I think he may be taking a ride in my car to the Goodwill today!

Does it have to be a known character? The neckband is a definite clue as Daffy and other cartoon people wore those often, and the Chase Bag Company was used by many corporations in advertising. It is valuable as a vintage mystery but my guess is one of Jim Hendersons red haired ones called Gerald

I think it’s something like Montrose suggested – a fast-food restaurant give-away. When I looked at the photo, I first thought Burger King, but I can’t say why that is.
