ANTIQUE STEIFF CAT on WHEELS

Description

Have a look at Our Early Cat on Wheels
An early grey Burlap Steiff Cat we fondly know him as Pumice. He's on iron wheels in pretty good shape for a toy of his age with only a hint of where his felt ears once were. He's without his tail and has a couple of holes that are still tight without leakage. His airbrushed stripes are very good and original yellow glass eyes with flat tops to them.
Not mohair nor wool plush, but a burlap type cloth, similar to the Steiff Tige dog which they list as short pile plush in the reference books. On his face is a loose thread of his floss. He is missing his tail but otherwise in very good condition. Wheels roll very well. He measures 7 1/4" to top of head and almost 9" nose to butt, most likely from the period around 1909.
