Description:
Unusual vintage GUND spotted leopard pajama bag / pajama holder with its original manufacturer's label.
The leopard features a wonderfully kitschy molded rubber/vinyl-style face, vivid green eyes, spotted faux fur, black felt claws, tail and a zippered compartment on the underside for holding pajamas.
The original fabric label reads:
Gund Mfg. Co.
J. Swedlin Inc.

The old New York postal-zone address is a particularly nice detail for collectors and adds to the piece's vintage appeal.
