Unbelievable vintage 1940's - 1950's original sock monkey family!!! I bought these from a lady who mentioned that her best friend made these for her when they were about 20 years old (she was at least 80). They are fantastically constructed and extremely detailed. Dressed beautifully with hand made clothing in original 40's fabrics with details like a handkerchief in the papa monkeys back pocket, ric rack edging on mama monkeys apron and she has panties (of course)! Mama & papa have button eyes with eyelashes and great expressions! The best is the baby monkey...how adorable - he looks more like dad ;) !!!

They seem to be stuffed with some sort of plastic (very dense). In excellent shape for their age. Clean and not smelly!!!

A slight run in mama monkeys leg, papa monkeys hat needs to be tacked down and his pom pom is a mere 4 strands. These flaws do not detract from the appearance of the set - it's "character"!

Mama & Papa measure approximately 19" - 20" (top of hat to tip of tail)
Baby is a wee 7 1/2"

If interested, I have additional photos.

I am not a sock monkey fan (some look kind of creepy)... but this set made me one! I'll be sorry to see them go but they will make a standout addition to any collection.

I have a smoke and pet free home.
