with wonderfully shaped front and back flippers

My guess is that they were a (well done) art/design school exercise

long-lashed boy in hat plus not one but three adorable puppies

Old Carved German Ezrgebirge Holstein Cow children with wonderfully shaped front andJust a sweet old Erzgebirge cow with heavy udder, and pretty great wonkily painted face. She's been around, with some paint loss along the ridges of her carved body and a little cracking to the paint on her udder, which to me just makes her easier to love. Larger than the small variety of Erzebirge animals 3" l x 2 1 4" t x 1" w. Structurally sound and steady on her feet.
