Appealing little 6 1/2 ins teddy bear in need of some minor nursing care.

 

 

There are no identifying labels. I have tried to do some research to put a date on him

 

and my best guess would be late 1930s/40s.

 

 

I think he is mohair – most of it is still there.

 

 

His limbs are all sewn on – a few threads have come loose.

 

 

There is a small split to the seam of one leg through which you can just see the stuffing and he

 

looks to be stuffed with rags/fabric. There is also a smaller seam split to one arm.

 

 

He has short, stubby arms, two brown glass eyes, an embroidered nose but no mouth.

 

 

The ends of his arms/legs are just stitched together – no pads.

 

 

Perhaps he was hand made for a child during WW2?
