ANTIQUE STEIFF TEDDY BEAR

Description

Greatly Loved!!
He's had a Good Life with the wrinkles and balding to prove it, Our Lovable Old Steiff named Heinz.
Embrace your unique self!! And follow his lead to a happier life as aging gracefully to 100 years old isn't always easy.
It's Personality plus for this old Geezer with great charm showing thru his worn appearance. He measures a bit over 11 in. tall. He may have had original glass eyes replaced with shoe buttons, it?s hard to say, but one can tell from the length of his muzzle, the bigger feet and the long arms he's likely from the late 1920s- early 30s.
With general balding in most areas, his deep gold mohair looks darker in person than his photos. Many naïve repairs done by the hands of a loving mother, some worn thru areas showing the excelsior, stain on his nose, floss is missing, pads show much wear to 3 of them, a great old leather patch rests under his chin and athinning area in his fabric near the front of his right arm. Hump looks resewn and possibly stuffing was added.
