RARE Holt Howard Felt Nodder Rudolph / Vintage Christmas Bobble Head / Kitchy

Super rare, hard to find, vintage Holt Howard felt Rudolph nodder/bobble head. Great holiday piece with brown felt, tiny Santa hat as well as a red nose! It's also adorned with a gold fringe collar and emerald green eyes; both gems are present. Measures 5 1/4" x 5" x 2 1/2". This is a very special piece; but shows signs of age and use. Shows signs of its age with worn felt areas and appears the tip of the tail has been chipped at one time and colored it, see photos. The head has a repair; see photos, the hook that holds it inside the neck is missing, so this no longer nods; the eye is present so it may be able to be repaired. There is a hole in the bottom, see picture. Exact age is unknown but believed to be 1950-1960s.
