I purchased this antique bear at a department store teddy bear event. She's a favorite because of her smiling mouth and the high-pitched growler inside, which gives her a baby-like feel. She's a large bear, as she's photographed sitting in an adult chair. I think this kind of bear really appeals to a specific type of antique bear enthusiast. She looks like she came straight out of a picture book. I was collecting her, but my room has become too small, so I'm offering her to someone who will appreciate her. I've forgotten the exact age and country of origin, but I believe she's quite old. Please understand that this is an antique, and purchase only if you accept her condition. I purchased her from Sputnik Plus.
