Item:234691101909Old Antique Vtg 1880s Folk Art Stuffed Hippo Childs Toy Amish Primative AAFA. This offering is for an antique circa 1880's hand made folk art child's stuffed Hippopotamus. The toy is the workmanship of a loving mother or father, possibly Amish, who tried their very best to make a toy in the form of what they thought a Hippo would have looked like. The result is a whimsical elongated fellow that just makes you smile. The toy measures app. 16" in length from stem to stern and 6" in maximum height. The Hippo can be very careful posed to stand on his front legs but he much prefers to just let them splay to the sides and lay down. He is very firmly stuffed, likely with straw, he shows a combination of both hand and machine sewing. . There is some soiling and signs that his rear had gotten wet at some point. His purple blanker also has some wear with a few small holes on one side. Lastly one of his red eyes has a small piece missing from the edge. There is minor wear to the surface but no rips, tears or repairs. The buyer will pay a fixed amount of $ 15.00 for Standard Mail and we will include delivery confirmation, tracking, at no additional cost.
