Summary
A toy lion made from light brown fur fabric which has black stripes drawn on it. He is lying down. He has a long, unstuffed tail and floppy ears which have white fur fabric on the undersides. There is a white patch under his chin, and at each side of his lower face is a piece of longer-pile fur fabric as whiskers. He has two nylon thread whiskers threaded through his nose. His nose and mouth are embroidered in black and pink cotton thread, and his eyes are green glass or plastic on metal shanks, sewn into his head. His back feet have pink felt soles. He is very dirty.
