This adorable little fawn made by Steiff/Germany was made between 1959 and 1964. He like all our items comes from our family's collection, was bought when he came out and has been stored away these many years with his friends. He is made of Mohair, has his tag and button (#6314.00, this number also went to Zicky Goat with red bow). Is in good condition and is 5 3/4 inches tall. A wonderful addition to any Steiffcollection or as a gift. If you would like to see a small video we did for this guy and some of our other items, please visit our new youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwyOgNWgdHE
*(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)
