Winnetou. Ges.Gesch. West Germany. What Am I?

I picked up this cute Native American mid century plastic.....thingee at a flea market and I'm dying to know what it is. It's made in West Germany by Ges. Gesch.  It has a cut out on the head that fits on a door knob, but it can't hang when the door is closed, and what purpose would it serve anyway?  

Does anyone know what this is?

  1. My guess is that it's a clothes hanger for children. Whatever it is, it's really cute!

  3. We have a collection of these going--they're German children's hangers and we have around a dozen different examples, including Winnetou. You don't really find these in the US too much.

    Nice score!
