No ! I have never seen it before Shocked

It looks like some kind of comics-elefant. Is it marked Schleich ? How big is it ?

Please, tell us more, tell us more bounce drunken

Hello Susanne,

I spoke to Thomas and he confirmed that the elephant was produced by Schleich. The elephant is from the 50s, but unfortunately not marked with Schleich. He is about 6.5 cm long and 5.5 cm high. Is apparently one of the very first figures from Schleich.

I would be interested if anyone else has this character?

Do anybody know something about this elephant? Is this a schleich? I suppose it isn't.

And the price ...  Evil or Very Mad on eBay

Thank you very much Franz.
The auction is really very interesting. I was curious and I wrote the seller for more informations.
I get an answer  at once. He is also member of STS and I also have ask for permisson, if I can write  all these information here you can read below:

arrow Here is the sellers and STS member answer in German and my translation in English:

Hallo,
ich habe den Elefant, etliche Biegefiguren (auch Original verpackte in Blistern) wie auch Minis und paar weitere extrem seltene Schleich Stücke von einer Frau angekauft, die in Schwäbisch Gmünd lebt und diese Stücke als Kind geschenkt bekommen hat. All die Sachen lagen über 50 Jahre in ihrer Schublade. Es waren wirklich nur Schleich Stücke bei. Ich hatte mich dann noch bei einem Schleich Sammler (Thomas W.) erkundigt und dieser bestätigte mir auch die Schleich Herkunft des Elefanten. Einen Bildnachweis habe ich leider nicht.

Schauen Sie sich bitte diesen Bericht an, dort sind noch weitere Stücke abgelichtet die ich damals zusammen gekauft hatte.

Viele Grüße

arrow Now in English:
Hi ,
I have the elephant, some bending figures (including original packaged in blisters) and minis and some other extremely rare Schleich pieces bought from a woman, who lived in Schwäbisch Gmünd and these pieces has been given her as a child. All the things were in her drawer for over 50 years. There were really only pieces by Schleich inside.
I  even at a Schleich collector (Thomas W.) fore more informations and he confirmed me, that the elephant is made by Schleich .

Please take a look at this report, there are still more pieces photographed that I had purchased at that time together..

...perhaps Thomas W. could help us. I think he has a Schleich proof to the elephant.

Does anyone have contact with him?

Yes, that would be fine, but I don´t know a member with this name here at STS.
If he is here a member, it would be great, when he read this topic.

Perhaps other members know him ?
Perhaps our admins can help ?
