Description: This one is a mystery for us! We searched high and low on the internet and could not find another plush like this one. It does have a tag where we make out the word “Japan”, so it is not likely that it is home made. After doing some research, we have reason to believe it could be an early Dakin Dream Pet. We found this excerpt below from the website virtual pet.com… “Dream Pets had their origins back in 1957 when R. Dakin & Company imported some battery powered toy trains from Japan and found them packed in a box with and unusual filler to keep the trains from getting damaged in shipment. The exporter used six little stuffed animals as packing. They were made from velveteen scraps and filled with sawdust (think prehistoric Beannie Babies) to protect products being shipped. When Dakin asked the Japanese company making them what the small stuffed animals were called. They told Dakin they were called Dream Pets because the people making them could dream they were whatever pet they wanted.” This stuffed animal fits the description as it is a velvety material, filled with a firm material that feels like sawdust. But as there is no tag, we cannot confirm it’s identity. Even if it is not an original Dakin, this plush is pretty cool. We aren’t positive as to what animal it is- dog, fox, deer- but it is a very neat piece of history. We think it could even be a cute Rudolph with the addition of a red nose and bow around its neck. It is in vintage used condition and shows signs of wear typical of the age and use of item including some minor staining. Shipped from a smoke free environment.
