This is one of the larger vintage Steiff Bear's in my store. He is nearly 17 inches in height.
He is another classic bear (looking back at the design of an early 1904 bear - he has very long arms and a pronounced hump). My teddy has movable joints, long honey-coloured mohair fur and felt pads on his four paws.. He has a white label on his side (instead of the button in his ear) and has a paper elephant tag. In his ear he has a special stainless steel elephant button. There is also a special target button in his other ear, as photographed. He has little black glass eyes and dark brown stitched nose.
Mr Bear is from a Limited Edition that was only available to subscribers for the year 2004. He comes in his original box (it has a tiny hole in it, as photographed). His issue number is 04488 as annotated on his white ribbon on his side and on the certificate. He is about 45 cm in height.
It is certainly a lovely bear - and of course in lovely clean "as-new" condition with no smells or dust on his fur (as with all my bears on my website). You will not be disappointed with it.
My price takes into account the bear's condition and indeed his large size - he looks so good on display! A great present for that special person - who will be able to treasure Mr Big Bear for years. Too good to keep in the box.. he needs a cuddle! He is listed at a very fair price.
He is Issue No. EAN 404153.
