I believe these tags are from the 1950's to 1960s . Grund animals have names like the monkey they make his name is monkigrund or something to that affect . So they have cure names . They are collectible by many and yours are in beautiful condition !
The tag I see fits this scenerio old rabbit "G" Gund label- which started in 1948. His label lists manufacture city as NY. Gund moved from NY to NJ in the early 70's. This older label suggests he was made in the 50's or 60's.
This is cat Kitty as an example
