Antique Vintage Old Australian Teddy Bear – Lambswool Early 1950s / Collectors Bear .
Very sweet little lambs wool teddy was made in Australia, possibly by Joy Toys in the 1950s. During and after WWII, this covering was readily available. Joy Toys was stationed in Melbourne and formed by Gerald Kirby and his wife in the late 1920s – 1966 . They were taken over by British Lines Brothers .This 13 teddy is jointed in the limbs, but has a stationery head. He has shoe button eyes / the head is excelsior, while the limbs and body are kapok. Teddys ears are simply an extension of the face area, with a seamseparating the head to the ears. The pads are original and in excellent condition. So many of these teddies also had a foam stuffing, which made them disintegrate in hot environments. Original stitched nose / mouth .Teddy has age related wear – full coverage of wool however is loose at upper chest area which has been pressed down into place – therefore should not be disturbed ( for Collectors/ display purposes only )* Lambswool was used during the war years when mohair was in short demand *A lovely example of a lambswool Teddy Bear for collectors who have an interest in different styles / makes of bears through the years .Happy Bidding
