Twin Vintage Dakin Leopards

[iloveplushies67]

Dakin Plush Leopards From 1976.The Leopards Are Approximately 13 Inches Tall.The Tails Are Approximately 8 Inches Long. Something I Noticed Is That They Have Different Manufacturer's Tags On Them Although They Were Both Made By Dakin In 1976.The Tag In Red Is From The Leopard With A Collar And The Tag In Blue Is From The One Without A Collar.




Also I Replaced The Felt Nose On The One Without A Collar Which Is How I Noticed That They Had Different Tags In The First Place As I Took The One That Has The Collar Down From The Shelf To Get A Rough Trace Of The Nose

It's interesting that the one is identified as 'fun farm' and the other is not. Both are very sweet :o)

The Only Thing's That I Can Think Of Is That #1 They're From Different Production Runs Or #2 The Fun Farm Ones Were Made For Select Retailers That Wanted Them Branded Differently.Only Thing I Know For Sure Is That They Were Both Made By R Dakin & Co In 1976 (Same PA Reg # On Them :) )

Did these two come to you together, or separately over time? Looks like they enjoy each other's company. :3

They Were Bought Separately I Only Noticed The Different Tags Because I Took One Down To Get A Rough Trace For The Felt Nose That Was Missing On The One I Just Got. I Think They Enjoy One Another's Company Also.
