Message:: [QUOTE="SBSVC, post: 427203, member: 136"]Lucille, I love your little critter, whatever he/she may be! In many ways, it reminds me of the 1920's/1930's German "Putz" composition nativity sheep, although it doesn't have the more common "stick legs". (If you look up German stick leg sheep, you'll find many of them.) A number of those sheep also had rather long, un-docked tails, too, but they tended to be flatter and less horse-like (or horse-hair-like) than the tail on yours. They used to come with paper collars, some of which actually said GERMANY on them. Here's one of mine:[ATTACH=full]149527[/ATTACH]The tail:[ATTACH=full]149528[/ATTACH] There were also horses, donkeys, cows and more, made in a similar way. Here's one of the horses:[ATTACH=full]149529[/ATTACH] The head on yours seems more sheep-like to me, but the stance is more horse-like. I honestly don't know which yours is - other than adorable! p.s. I absolutely LOVE that little boot, too![/QUOTE]
