Mohair Paul The Growling Bear, sand by Steiff EAN: 037221 Limited Edition Size: 1,908 Size: 11 inches
Steiff 2008 World Wide Ltd.Editions Paul
the growling bear is a replica of a Teddy bear from the year 1908. His
unique charm and unbelievable friendly character evokes memories of days
gone by. Paul has very bright and watchful boot-button eyes and is made
of long-tufted, blond mohair that has a little soft shine and traces
left behind by many loving hands. The mohair has been specially treated
and discretely patinated with a bronze color - as well as the felt paws
of the legendary "Bruin the Bear" that tell the stories of a bear's
eventful life. Thus, Paul the growling bear elates both Steiff friends
and collectors alike in a Limited Edition of 1,908 pieces worldwide. His
genuine character with the classic stuffing made of wood shavings, the
"underscored button" made of patented steel plus the nicer-sounding,
longer-lasting growl that was re-developed on the occasion of his 100th
birthday by an organ builder from Giengen make him a sought-after
collector's item of lasting value.
