STEIFF Rabbit Vintage German Hand Puppet 1950s.

This vintage Steiff Rabbit hand puppet has glass eyes, long ears, and monofilament whiskers. It’s handcrafted mainly of golden-colored mohair plush with beautiful airbrushing work in black to beige hues. Rabbit's red nose and mouth are hand-stitched and the paws and eyes have black airbrushed features. The ears are lined in tan felt and airbrushed with pink detailing. Its head is stuffed with excelsior (wood wool) and has a cardboard finger tube for movement. This little bunny has had its ears pulled too many times (note loose threads in photo – they also have some slight stains).

Nine inches high, manufactured in Germany in the 1950s (no chest name tag, has button but no label, or original ribbon bow).

Good condition except as noted.
