One of the great umbrellas of all times. The cat has a glove holder mouth with glass eyes and matching carved cats on the tip of each stay. When you open the mouth the ears turn. Cats are not near as common on canes and umbrellas as dogs. The cats were also used later than the dogs. I think this umbrella is 1910. Courtesy of Rick Wagner
