Here we have the Snobby poodle in black (we also have the white, that is if he is still here). Just as cute as a button and made by *Steiff/Germany. He is also made of Mohair and his line was made between 1959 and 1967. Was bought by our family when he came out and has been stored away all these many years (boy does he need a good long walk too). Has his tag and button (#5310.06) and is in good condition. Like the white color Snobby he is also jointed and is around 4 inches tall from head (pom-pom) to paw. Snobby would make a delightful addition to any Steiff collection or as a cute gift. If you would like to see a small video we did of this Steiff and some of our other items, please visit our new youtube channel we are working on.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eBWX3CqEVM
*(Steiff is the world’s oldest plush manufacturer. Founded in 1880 by Margarete Steiff, a seamstress who was limited to sewing with one hand due to
polio, the company has grown to be synonymous with top quality the world over. Steiff is best known as the company that invented the Teddy bear. In 1902, Richard Steiff, a nephew of Margarete and a gifted artist/inventor, presented the idea to Margarete. At first, she was not enthusiastic. But with Richard’s persistence, she finally relented. And the rest is history. The famous “Button in Ear” trademark, introduced by Franz Steiff, another of Margarete’s nephews, in 1904, distinguishes every Steiff Teddy bear or animal).
