He’s a wonderful earlier Steiff Cat, hardly ever seen with a cream mohair front and a mottled spotted coat of mohair to his face tail and back half of his body. He has no button but you can see where it once was and find him in the book on pg. 146. He measures about 6 3/4” long nose to butt and about 5 1/2” tall to head not including ears.

Original as found with some patina to him. he's been displayed and only brushed, not newly cleaned nor fluffed up.  In very nice condition with some fur loss, most of his original floss remains though a few claws have broken. He has a jointed head, stationary legs and tail, felt lined ears and green glass eyes. His ribbon on neck is not original.

He has retained about 75% of his fur coat, vivid air brushed stripes on his fur make for a mottled or squiggly design. His tail is pretty furry with a slight separation of straw inside which may look like a break but it is slightly wrinkled. His front left paw shows a wire poking out of it which is part of his armature. He stands well and is in very good condition for his age, made in the 1930s.
