Product description
The sample submitted is a plush three-dimensional depiction of a moose holding (by means of hook and loop closures) a rolled detachable blanket. The blanket is constructed of 100% polyester knit fleece and measures approximately 50” wide x 60” long. This product line also includes a snowman and a bulldog, each holding a blanket. The sample will be returned as requested. The item is not considered a set for the purposes of the tariff as the blanket has no features that would contribute to a child’s amusement. Therefore, the moose and the printed blanket will be classified separately.
