Herbert the Lion, that is.
"There was once a little girl named Sally who wanted a baby lion. She already had a doll's house, two dolls, a tea set, and a toy zebra on wheels, but she didn't like any of them. All she wanted was a lion, a real, live lion. So one day her mother brought her one from downtown."
-Clare Turlay Newberry, Herbert the Lion, 1931
