Vintage Peter Cottontail Plush Bunny. Measures about 13.5" in height to tip of ears. Very good condition.
This vintage Peter Cottontail plush is a quintessential representation of the high-quality character toys produced by Applause, a brand renowned for its superior craftsmanship in the late 20th century. Standing thirteen and a half inches to the tips of its ears, this bunny captures the soft, nostalgic charm of the legendary holiday character. The fur is a dense, high-grade plush in a warm tan tone, reflecting the attention to detail and "gift-quality" standards that made Applause a leader in character merchandising.
While often associated with seasonal festivities, this bunny serves as a whimsical "theatrical curiosity" when placed on a library shelf or tucked among a collection of vintage children's literature. Its neutral cream and pink palette allows it to function as a soft textural accent in a study or a room styled with light, airy vintage pieces. The plush is in very good condition, with its fur remaining soft and its structural integrity firm. The delicate facial features and signature Applause construction are well-preserved, making it a lovely find for collectors of literary-inspired characters or those looking to add a touch of timeless, soft-sculpture art to their decor.
This item is vintage, approximately 35 years old.
