This is a nice antique straw stuffed bear with long golden blonde fur and is jointed at the head, arms and legs. I do not know much about antique bears and was told this might be a Steiff but it is not tagged and t are no sewn claws. Under the jumper it is wearing the fur looks like blonde hair and is rather long and a lot cleaner than the rest of the bear as if it has been wearing it a long time. T is a lot missing. It has felt pads with no claws but the feet are worn showing the straw stuffing. The muzzle is kind of turned up but then I can't tell if that is from storage or if it should be that way. It is 15" long and has one amber glass eye with a black pupil, the other one missing. It feels like a hump at the back under the head but it may be a little flattened. It has a growler that doesn't work. Condition is used and as described above but definitely loved. The head doesn't turn because it has been sewn on the right side and you can see part of the disc. The rest of the joints seem okay and move but the back of the right leg is showing part of the joint disc. On the right leg in front a little part of the seam is opened but should be an easy repair. The checked jumper seems hand-sewn and has the initials T and S on the front right side. Even if it sounds not so good it really adds to the charm of it. Please look at the pictures read more
