This is an auction for an INDIVIDUALLY NUMBERED HAND CRAFTED BOYDS BEARS & FRIENDS MINIATURE. It is a Retired item titled "Best Friends." It is a gorgeous product, but over the years has sustained damage. If you are not looking for it/are over a foot away, the damage if hard to spot. SOLD IN 1998 FOR $30

The male bear has one of his glasses' lenses missing. There is no glaring white chip though; it is VERY HARD TO SPOT. The only other damage on the front is a chip on the sign that says "Best Friends." This is nearly impossible to see without inspecting it thoroughly. On the back, there are a few nicks that would easily be disguised with a few markers.  One part of the bench seems to be chipped off, but it seems as thought it was made that way. However, I am not sure so I will give you the benefit of the doubt and call it damage.

As I said before this item is gorgeous; I just wanted to be through. VERY RARE. I am willing to sell it for much less than its actual value because of the damage. Will only go up in value. MY LOSS IS YOUR GAIN !!!!!!!!!
