This glorious nod to yesteryear, would have bought great amusement, admiration and fun, when it was originally released. It was created for the Steiff Museum in Geingen, Germany, for their Steiff Museum Replica Collection. Gently push this 1933 Replica's tummy and upon release, this kitty will suck up any fluid on her plate, via a straw into a concealed rubber balk. Crafted by the Master Teddy Bear Makers, Steiff. Slight damaged to the plastic lid (creasing)
