Steiff, the legendary German plush toy company, is famous for its artistry, beauty, and lasting quality. The company produced incredible stuffed animals of every type, including super fun hand puppets. And this puppet is even more special because it features a rare LEA chest tag! Even better, the puppet is in mint condition, is complete with all crisp IDs. As other vintage Steiff toys, it was expertly handmade in Germany between 1954-61 using the finest mohair plush that still shows vibrant coloring. The amazing airbrushing work gives this character an eye-catching appearance that everyone loves. It has endearing glass eyes, embroidered nose and mouth, and nylon whiskers. Its head is stuffed with excelsior (wood wool) and has a cardboard finger tube for movement. Little Lea hand puppet can't wait to be a special part of your vintage toy collection!
