WASHINGTON, DC -- CPSC, Kiddie Products, Inc. of Avon, MA is voluntarily recalling approximately 165,400 "2 ULTRA KIP Pacifiers Infant Size," model number 1201.

A yellow duck or a white and purple dog are printed on the plug. The package reads in part: "Ultra KIP Pacifiers, The First Years, non-toxic, Made in Germany." The pacifiers were sold nationwide from January 1990 to September 1992 for approximately $2.99 each. Neither the CPSC nor the company is aware of any injuries involving this product.
