This lion cub belonged to the donor all of his remembered life, and was originally given to him when he was very young, possibly on the occasion of his birth, in the early 1930's. It is made from beige plush, which has been stuffed and the front legs strengthened by wire. The fur has worn away in some places and the nose is missing. The head swivells through 360 degrees.
