    Hello everyone, I've had this pair of hippos for ages, and recently I've started to wonder where and possibly when they were made. Initially Initally thought they could be Egyptian 'William' hippos, but I'm really not sure.

    Thank you 20210414_154100.jpg 20210414_154129.jpg 20210414_154100.jpg 20210414_154129.jpg

    Hi Aquitaine, sadly no marks at all underneath and they are roughly 4.5" long.
    Thanks!

    Welcome Nigel.
    Your hippos are cute, but as you already suspected, not William.
