Collectors investment!! Antique Teddy Bear Near Mint NR. Golden bristle cut Teddy Bear with a wonderful smile. Circa early 1900 or slightly earlier. Working clicker (or non-working growler - can't tell). Approximately 7.5 inches (19 cm) in height. His glass eyes are almost ball-like with black pupils - very unusual. A few horiontal stitches suggest the nose; the mouth is an inverted Y shape. Arms and legs are jointed but not the head. May be from Great Britain or Austria. Very firmly stuffed with what appears to be straw. The collector I purchased him from about 10 years ago indicated he was from 1890 Austria. Corner of ear is starting to come away a tiny bit. Difficult to tell if there is fur loss due to sparce bristle cut nature of mohair. Excellent Condition from a non-smoking home.
