7” Steiff Walt Disney “Perru” Squirrel Rare c.1965-67

Collectibles : Steiff

 

Walt Disney Pictures made a charming movie about the life of a squirrel named Perri. This rare and hard-to-find squirrel is Perri #4317,03 (17cm – the medium size) as interpreted by Steiff in mohair. He is in excellent condition with his air-brushed velveteen acorn, four thick felt paws and bushy tail. His mohair is tipped with brown, gold and grey for character, white felt circles ring his shiny black plastic eyes and monofilament whiskers that tickle. There are no bald patches, damage or repairs. A hole in his ear from his Steiff button and the sewing loop for his chest tag remain, but button tags are missing. The tail is wired for posing. Too cute!!
