Much inspired by the other walk around threads here I decided I must do this one.
This is the North American Beaver Castro canadensis, produced by the Louis Marx Company in the 1950s. They were made in Marx mold PL-770, the large forest animals.
It is part of the Forest Animals series sold in boxes or as part of some playsets. Always in soft plastic the usual colors are tan, cream and brown with occasional grey ones.
The one you see here is in tan plastic. The color doesn't show accurately in the photos but it is a nice smooth color.
In my opinion this is the most accurate toy NA Beaver I have seen, much better in shape than any of the current brands have done so far.

The size on this beaver is 40mm, about 1 and a half inches
The Marx Forest Animals is a good series and this is the best of that group I think.
That's all for this post, I hope you all enjoy seeing him.

No no no no no, it didn't sound bossy! Shocked I think Your photos of beaver in different color are very informative and useful in topic about this figure Very Happy I wish anybody who have more different colors would post photos here also bounce
Susanne thank You for sharing silver beaver I find it very interesting variant! Sad(o)):

Oh, yes, and Your photos reminded me that I need to find this beaver also Razz Razz Razz
