Steiff, the iconic plush toy company founded in Germany, is internationally renowned for its artistry, beauty, and lasting value. They produced amazing animals including super fun hand puppets, like Gaty, the Alligator. And such a classic figure of the puppet show could not be better represented. Gaty is a really fun hand puppet and has an incredible stage presence. Its extra long mouth with felt teeth is very eye-catching. It uses high quality mohair plush with some equally remarkable airbrushing work. Its head is stuffed with excelsior (wood wool) and has a cardboard finger tube for movement. This is an early model handcrafted in Germany circa 1950-60s. Gaty is in good vintage condition but is missing its Steiff IDs. Don't wait, welcome this charming hand puppet to your vintage toy collection today!
