Listing description

Product description

Lot of three classic stuffed teddy bears with strong vintage character — all three show heavy surface soiling, thinned/matted fur pile and scuffed paw pads. The lot includes one bear with a red faux‑leather harness, one with a pink polka‑dot fabric bow and a small hat, and a visible paper/fabric maker tag on the rightmost bear’s foot (tag text not legible in photos). Photos and warehouse inspection show loose or missing plastic safety eyes (left bear), small holes/repair marks and scattered paint/ink specks on fur.

These tactile, well‑worn bears suit collectors, restoration projects, vintage display or prop use where authentic aged character is wanted. Ideal for a restorer who can tidy loose eyes and surface marks, a prop house seeking period charm, or a collector hunting projects and parts. They are not presented as restored toys — their charm is in the wear and original details such as the harness and the foot tag.
