Vintage STEIFF Mohair Wool "Pavian Coco" Baboon with Hair Collar - $400 - (Lexington, KY)

A Steiff Pavian Coco or Coco Baboon. Coco is 35 cm, five ways jointed, and made from very thick silver mohair. He has a long bendable tail and very realistic grey felt hands and feet – with each toe and finger clearly defined. Coco has a peach colored felt face and ears, as well as expressive deep-set eyes in felt pockets. One of the things that make Coco one of the most distinctive animals in the entire Steiff archive is his remarkable hair collar, which is made from mohair strands that are about 5 inches long! Coco was produced from 1951 through 1958 and then again in 1961. * Please look at my other mohair monkey listing, it is adorable and found at the same estate, but unmarked.
