Description: An early grey Burlap Cat on iron wheels likely from the german company Steiff or Bing in pretty good shape for a toy of his age with only a hint of where his felt ears once were. He's without his tail and has a couple of holes that are still tight without leakage. His airbrushed stripes are very good. Original yellow glass eyes have flat tops to them. A burlap type cloth, similar to the Steiff Tige dog which they list as short pile plush in the reference books. On his face is a loose thread of his floss. Wheels roll well. He measures 7 1/4" to top of head and almost 9" nose to butt, most likely from the period around 1909. *** Please note...Layaways Not Offered on Auction Items Feel free to email any questions or ask for additional pictures.
