Item History & Price
Vintage very well loved/threadbare mohair teddy bear
Golden mohair Straw filled Fully jointedBlack stitched nose & mouthGlass eyesRemains of non-working growler/squeaker felt in tummy area No makers marks or labels but possibly Chad Valley?Unsure of age? but my best guess is 1940's/ 50's?
Approx. 16inches long
He's still wearing an old tartan ribbon (sewn together) which has a loose cloth label which says "Menzies (Hunting) Made in Scotland"
Extreme...ly worn/well loved bear with only sparse remains of mohairReplacement paw pads which are falling off & you can see the remains of the original rexine pads underneathHe also has a repair- crude stitching on his back & there are several holes in the material - one on his chest & the other top back of right leg near the jointHis eyes look as though they have been re-attached at some point as evidence of crude stitching underneath & not well secured or could be replacements I'm not sure?
No unpleasant odours or infestations

As with all vintage items they may at one time been in contact with cigarette smoke but not whilst in my care
