These are from a group of wonderful old handmade animals I found this past weekend in New Hampshire, I believe from a Noah's Ark set, though I'm not entirely sure all from the same set. I've divided them into a few pairs, and thought these two pattern-intensive, smiling creatures-- and habitat-sharers in real life--a perfect match. The giraffe has jointed legs as well as nails for horns and tail (painted with the same pattern detail as the rest of him), while the zebras legs are nailed on.
Giraffe is 4 3/4" t x 2 7/8" l x 13/16" w. Zebra is 3 1/8" l x 2 3/8" t x 3/4" w. Nice aged condition and in good structural shape; the legs of the giraffe need to be arranged in the right position in order for him to stand sturdily, but then he's good. The zebra is missing a tail.
