I was thrilled when I found this quirky and charming equine!

Fashioned out of a heavy cotton twill and measuring 9 inches from the tip of his nose and standing 7 inches tall, he is stuffed with rags.  He is both hand and machine sewn.  His eyes and mouth are sewn out of a heavy cotton floss,  as was his mane and tail of which there are but remnants.  He’s got only one ear – evidence of being a beloved and cherished plaything long ago. 

He dates to the late 19th C and was found in Lancaster County, PA. 

I’m just not finding good early Mennonite or Amish animals any more.  Here’s your chance to add one to your collection.
