This rare Schuco Cat Hand Puppet from the "Bi-Ba-Bo" series was finely handcrafted in Germany circa 1950s. Its sweet expression with glass eyes and hand stitched nose is adorable. Its body is made of mohair plush with a triangular fabric detail representing a Princess dress. Its head is stuffed with excelsior (wood wool) and has a cardboard finger tube for movement. This little puppet has been well loved. It shows plush wear with bald spots and a small hole in the front and larger one at the back. There's a stain in the back and the bottom seam is damaged. Despite the condition issues it's a very charming little puppet seeking for a new home.
