A Truly Special Early Kitty Cat that fits nicely in your hand measuring 6” tall seated to top of head. She can shake things up with her Working Rattle inside her body.
She is all original softly stuffed with green glass eyes, wonderful single thread floss on nose & mouth and she has a beautiful face with nice full ears. A great early toy made of velvet or velveteen, showing her caramel Tabby Cat airbrushed stripes. Her tail is now just a bud away from being lost entirely. There may be a slight fracture in her right glass eye and her original ribbon was silk has shredded away. The seam running down her left leg shows a separation or frayed area and a slight tear about ½” with no leakage at all. Overall darker patina than when she was made from play & handling thru the years. in Wonderful condition for her age. She seems a bit dusty in photos but not in person.
A Lovely Early Cat Rattle likely made by Steiff during the early pre button period around 1903? Rattle Works Great and she looks much better in person.
