<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jarraneil, post: 4564731, member: 78378&quot;]This cute guy was given to my dad when he was a baby, so he is probably from the 1920&#039;s</p><p>At first I thought he was a Steiff but reading I have been doing on-line suggests that he is more likely a Bing.</p><p>He is stuffed with wood wool and has a shaggy mohair coat in very good condition.</p><p>He has the characteristic four claws of Bing but I can&#039;t find a tag anywhere on his body. I have checked the ears, under the arms etc</p><p>He has amber eyes and a fairly long snout</p><p>He stands around 12&quot;</p><p>His arms, legs and head are articulated</p><p>He is musical and if you squeeze his belly it activates internal chimes</p><p>I have not been able to find any examples on-line of a bear that matches this description</p><p>It would be great if someone could help me piece together a bit more of the history behind this little fellow[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
