1907 Steiff Teddy Bear
Sells for $1081.00 on an eBay Auction
Evelyn G. from Ann Arbor, MI chatted with Ken Yenke as he looks over the 1907, well loved, Steiff teddy bear that she brought to the November 7, 2010 teddy bear show.
"I've had this little bear for over 25 years and he's getting restless; wanting to find a new home," said Evelyn. "I was so excited when I heard that he was going to Nebraska to live!" |
Ken holds the 1907 brown, original Steiff teddy bear. "If you can't afford a bear this age that is in pristine condition, then this little bear is a treasure to add to your collection," said Ken. |
