SOLD $750.00 Sold: Jul 7, 2024 on eBayOriginal Listing Description
RARE 1953 STEIFF JACKIE BEAROffering a beautiful rare vintage 50's original Steiff 10" Jackie Bear in excellent clean condition. He still retains remnants of his US Zone tag on the back of his right arm indicating that he dates to 1953-54. You can read the word Germany on the bit of tag. Teddy has almost all of his faded blonde mohair with very minor thinning. He has glass eyes and his original nose and mouth stitching. He no longer has his Steiff ear button. He came to me wearing an old brown ribbon with a rusty cow bell attached to it around his neck. He's a very cute example of these sweet, chunky bears with chubby legs and belly. He is in strong condition and is able to self-stand on his own. This bear is fully stuffed with excelsior and is 5-way jointed and all original, with 4 claws on his paws and feet. All 4 of his paw pads are clean and in excellent condition with no holes and only a black spot on his right foot pad as shown. See all photos that describe this adorable bear best! All offers will be considered. Buyer pays a flat rate of $20 towards USPS Fully Insured Priority Postage in the USA only. No International Shipping. I will refund any overage of postage, but usually full insurance coverage brings up the price for postage, and I will pay the difference if any as it is often more than my flat rate. Thank you. (Condition: Pre-Owned)
