You might know them when you travel to gift shops and see local keepsakes with the little black cat, known as Casper. If you know Westfield, it would have been the perfect item for Jeanettes and Pickwick Village.

Order Your Own Winter on Mindowaskin Pond Keepsake
Mindowaskin Park is a tranquil 12.6 acre public treasure featuring a large pond, trees and gardens, walkways, and a playground. The original bandstand was constructed in 1922 and was replicated for the 1994 re-dedication of the park. It has been supported by the Friends of Mindowaskin Park, Inc. since 1993 and is a popular spot for quiet walks, wedding photographs, and overall public enjoyment. If winter cooperates, the park turns into a winter wonderland.
Brooks Betz, a member of the Mr. Local History Project presented the idea to the board and they loved it. Seems that there were a few others that also remembered the scene of being on Mindowaskin pond in their early years. Anyone who has experienced it will remember it for sure. So the board approved this limited edition collectible for the New Jersey Historic Village Collection. At this point there will only be one production run so make sure you get yours while you can.
