The Rinoceros, Zebu, Hyena, Gazelle, Deer, and Gorilla were first introduced
for Teddy's Adventures in Africa ca 1909-1910. Glass eyes were used for all
but the gorilla. These glass eyes came from Europe and became
unavailable when WWI started in 1914. Schoenhut, when their supply of
glass eyes ran out, switched to hand-painted
eyes. |
