This kitty really struts.  He is made of black plastic with a very slight swirl of orang.  The clasp is genuine bakelite but the kitty himself does not test positive for bakelite.  However, there is a possibility that this kitty is all bakelite since black bakelite does not test positive.  Either way, the era fits with the style and clasp. He dates from the 1930's and you will love him.  He measures 1 1/5" W x 1 3/4" tall with a C-clasp.
