Extremely Rare & Unusual Early American Electric Bear. Electric Growler Battery Operated. Wood Wool And Cork Chips Stuffed. This is a very unusual bear that I cannot find in any books; the nearest I can find is electric eyed bears made by a few early American bear manufacturers like Fast Black Skirt Company (New York City) among others. This was maybe a prototype that didn’t catch on as it would have made a buzzing sound rather than a growl. The bear was untouched when he came to me but I was intrigued by the Bakelite button under his left arm and so had to open his rear seam to investigate. What I discovered was a Bakelite buzzer mechanism operated by a very old form battery and a bear stuffed with a mixture of wood wool and cork chips. This along with the remains of a cloth nose lead me to think that he is very early. Also he has boot button eyes that appear to be original and not replacements for electric eyes. He has jointed limbs but a fixed head and is very solidly stuffed. He has pads of a felt / brushed cotton material that appear to me to be original and in good condition. He retains at least 70% of his mohair and has three claws on each limb. He wears his red knitted top that he came with which gives him a Pooh bear look. If you are looking for the unusual bear to join your hug then Amos could be the bear for you. He came to us along with Morris who is also for sale.

Baxter Early RARE SIGNED 1900's Steiff C1908 Teddy Bear Antique Old FF BUTTON
Baxter – Early RARE SIGNED 1900’s Steiff C1908 Teddy Bear Antique Old FF BUTTON. Introducing Baxter – I love him! He dates to around 1908 and was made by Steiff. He is fully jointed, stuffed with woodwool and stands around 16.5inches tall from toe to ear tip! He really is such a joyous bear!!!! He retains his original boot button eyes, felt pads, original facial and claw stitching. He also retains his original burnt orange ribbon and ff button to his ear! Is also extra special as during the 1980’s his owner took him to get his foot autographed by Steiff Family members; Hans-Otto Steiff (who was president of Steiff, and his great grand-aunt was Margarete Steiff) and his wife Birgit Eitle Steiff! Baxter is covered in lots of fluffy blonde mohair with long limbs and a hump. He has a really friendly smiley face and would be an extra special addition for any antique bear collector. It feels a privilege to hold such a wonderful bear who is over a century old!!!! He is photographed here with his Teddy Baby friends and his best friend 1930’s Hoggle the brown steiff, who are all looking for homes. The photographs form part of the description so please look at them carefully. Any questions please message me :.
