What a FIND! A circa 1950s Steiff Boxer in excellent condition. The button is still in his ear. The only signs of wear are a few cracks in his collar. They can be seen in the picture. The Boxer is 7" tall.

From November 1904 onwards, every Steiff animal leaving the factory had a "Button in Ear". The original button was made of metal, embossed with an elephant. Franz Steiff, another of Margarete's nephews, came up with this idea to distinguish Steiff articles from imitation products. The elephant was later replaced by the name "Steiff". This ingenious idea marked the launch of a world-famous trademark: Steiff "Button in Ear."

An absolute must for a collector!
