I am going to call you the " Homeless Shelter for dolls and plush toys " You save so many from being put to sleep :-) He is most likely from 50-60's . But his face is forever gone :-( Good for you for rescuing him now what to do with him ?????? Halloween maybe :-)
So ugly only a IT'S mother could love it, she's probably long gone so place him face down & run like hell! lol
To me, when I see old toys and dolls (like what I collect) I think of innocence/childhood lost. Its sad to me. They brought so much happiness to a little child, just to be discarded. I'll love them!
It's good that he has found a home, he served his purpose & deserves to live his life out in a nice home.
I love Monkey's I would adopt him. His is a very lucky monkey to have you taking care of him:)
