I recently acquired two Krampus items that are Czech in origin. I brought them out for Krampusnacht or Krampus Night ... December 5, 2012. The chenille figure likely is from the 1960s and the die cut paper item, which could be a label or scrap piece, is roughly from the same time and possibly even dating to the 1940s.
