About the Item
A charming Classic vintage plastic squeaky toy cat „Liba, the tomcat“ with accordion body, designed in 1963 by Libuse Niklova, executed by Fatra Napajedla Toy Factory in former Czechoslovakia.
In good condition, with normal signs of age, there is still the integrated whistle existing, which is very often missing.
Libuse Niklova (Libuše Niklová), née Kyselaková (1934–1981) was a toy designer. Czech national treasure and world queen of toys. A world-renowned designer and innovator who created over 230 original toys, many of which were produced in many color variants. Well-known are her rubber figurines, accordion animals and inflatable toys. Her legendary work is represented in the collections of museums around the world, for example in collections of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the National Museum of Modern Art in Tokyo, or in the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague. In 2012, on the occasion of the annual Czech Grand Design Awards, she was the first female designer ever to be inducted into the Hall of Fame.
