STEIFF TIGE CINNAMON DOG

Here we have a lovely old Steiff Tige cinnamon bulldog. He is absolutely gorgeous. The cinnamon colour is still unbelieveably strong. Coverage of cinnamon is very good with just a few areas of thinning and loss. He is a really strong old boy. Button lost a long time ago. Large bootbutton eyes. He is early and dates from around 1910. I must say I much prefer Tige in mohair rather than the more common burlap.

He measures about 16 inches from nose to tip of tail and around 9 inches from the ground to the top of his head. His original woodwool stuffing is very firm in the head legs and body but has compacted in the neck area so his head hangs in the standing position. He is therefore a bit more comfortable posed sitting down. This is offered at an excellent price so do not delay if you would like to add him to your Steiff collection. Layaway is available so do ask if required. Contact me please if you require more details.
