On May 22, 2008, the Disney Store recalled about 4,100 Pirates of the Caribbean sleeping bags because surface paint on the bag’s zipper pull contains excessive levels of lead, posing a lead poisoning risk.
The recalled Disney sleeping bags have a cartoon pirate design of Davey Jones and Jack Sparrow on the front, and have style number F1652B0003 printed on the inside label’s logo.
Disney stores nationwide sold the recalled Pirates of the Caribbean sleeping bags from April 2007 through October 2007 for about $25.
Consumers should immediately take the sleeping bags away from children and return them to any Disney Store for a full refund. For more information, customers may contact Disney Store at 866-902-2798, or visit the company’s website.
