<p>[QUOTE="Eric Tipton, post: 9927199, member: 9899"]Wow, thank you all very much for all the help! So glad you found that blog Komokwa, that is exactly the info I was looking for! I think it may actually be one of the rare large sized like that post, and it makes sense that it would have been in a store window. It's exactly the size that they were made to be, 115cm or 44" inches, I think mine is just a bit more sturdy and in better condition. You would think it would have a lot more wear to it, but it's so big and surprisingly heavy that people aren't going to be picking it up all the time, it will just be sitting somewhere. Considering the collection it came from, it very well could be one of them, so I will take Matahari's advice and contact the Steiff museum and see what they think (thanks for the resource!). There's also a hole in the ear, so it must have lost the tag.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here's some more pictures for anyone interested. The face looks better from the front, and one leg has some wear and discoloration.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
