Mecki originated from a hedgehog character created by the Diehl brothers for a 1938 puppet film and later became a popular figure in the German magazine Hörzu.
Steiff began producing licensed Mecki figures in 1951.
This skiing version, bearing an Innsbruck 1964 Olympic tag, connects the well-known German character with the Winter Games and the growing culture of Olympic souvenirs.
