EXTREMELY RARE AND VERY EARLY VELVET STEIFF RATTLE CAT WITH ELEPHANT BUTTON. This circa 1905 Steiff velvet rattle is truly the cat`s meow. Cat is lying, unjointed, and made from white velvet that has been painted with black and grey spots and stripes. He has a very long tail which sticks out straight behind him.
