Steiff, the legendary German plush toy company, is famous for its artistry, beauty and lasting quality. They produced incredible stuffed animals of every type, including super fun hand puppets, like this eye-catching Snake! A reptile that is rarely seen as a plush toy but Steiff made it, but ONLY during 1965-66. Due its very short production time, this puppet became one of the rarest post war Steiff puppets. It was given the name Snaky and is highly collectible. It uses the nicest mohair plush and its airbrushing work is truly remarkable! This is also a fun "mouth style" hand puppet that can nicely fit an adult hand. Snaky is in good condition with nice coloring but its felt mouth is stained! It still retains the Steiff button and chest tag. The tongue is original. Don't miss the thrilling chance to add this rare puppet to your Steiff or vintage toy collection!
