Sophie Giraffe

Once Upon a time, a simple story….

The Little giraffe was born on the 25th of May in the year 1961…

St Sophie’s day!
In those days, the only animal toys available were farm animal or pet figures..

That is why one day in France, a certain Monsieur RAMPEAU, who was an expert in transforming sap from the HEVEA tree using the rotational molding of rubber as a toy-making concept, came up with the idea of designing a giraffe. Such an exotic wildlife figure would be a first on the market, and its size and shape would be ideal for a baby’s small hands to grasp.
Sophie the Giraffe, who looked exactly the same then as she does today, went into production on a Thursday, May 25th, whence her name.
