KIWI, AN EARLY CIRCA 1908 AMERICAN TEDDY!
This
is Kiwi, an adorable early American teddy bear of unknown make, possibly Ideal. He measures 10" tall, is fully jointed, filled with excelsior
(wood shavings), has black shoe-button eyes, a black floss nose and
mouth. This cutie has such a sweet face! He has a roundish head with a very cute side profile. Kiwi is in very good condition for his age, dating to approx. 1908. He retains about 80% of his light beige mohair with minor thinning evenly distributed. He was taken good care of over the years as he still retains his original pads on his paws and feet with absolutely no holes or damage of any kind (except for a dirt stain on his left paw that might come off with cleaning). He has strong fabric backing and no damage except for a small hole on the edge of his left ear (see pic) and has no odors of any kind. Kiwi
is wearing a gorgeous antique Chinese silk embroidered outfit with matching pants, and hat. It is GORGEOUS on him! This beautiful, early teddy is being offered at no
reserve—don’t
miss him!
