Searching – 70’s Eden YELLOW YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE LION – Head Moves
We have a mailing list for this Eden yellow lion.
I’m looking for a little yellow Eden wind up stuffed lion from the 70’s that plays You Are My Sunshine.
I had one as a child and had to throw it out when I got head lice. 🙁 I now have 2 girls and my youngest is named Summer. I call her My Sunshine. As I sang the song to her today, I cried and thought of my dear lion. I would love this for her nursery!
I miss my childhood one and would love to find one. It’s the ONLY toy I regret not being able to keep!!!!!!
Thank you!
Jennifer

Searching for a toy – Originally posted Monday – 05/09/2011
I have a lion that is probably the brother of the one in the picture. This lion has a red mane. The one in your picture looks orange.
It used to play “You are my sunshine” and move his head, but stopped recently when my 3 year old granddaughter wound it too tight. I don’t know if that is fixable.
It was a present for my newborn son 35 years ago. He has no attachment to it, so if you want it, I’d be glad to send it to you.

Great! I’ve passed your generous offer along to the mailing list for this lion.
I am also looking for this stuffy. I had it too as a baby and it was my favorite. Did you ever find it?
I am looking for this lion, too. My 35 year old son received one from a great aunt the day he was born, and he loved it. I would like to find one for the baby he is now expecting. Just seeing the photo flooded my heart with wonderful memories!
I am also looking for this lovey – my husband had this when he was a child and I had the elephant version. I still have mine but he doesnt have his. we are hoping to reunite them 🙂
Mine was the darker orange main also!!! I would love to find it also 🙂
Gave this lion to my daughter when she left the hospital in 1976, not want to find one for her daughter from me.

I have this lion too. It was the gift my dad bought for me the day I was born. Throughout my childhood I managed to cut the mane and chew off the felt ears. The music box no longer works. I am currently pregnant with my first baby and want to refurbish this little lion to give to him as his first gift. I am having trouble finding a music box with the rotating piece for the head. If anyone knows where I might find it please let me know.
I am looking for this lion also. I got it for my daughter in 1979, and it got lost in one of our moves :~\ I would LOVE to surprise her with a replacement !!!
