so glad i found this forum!!
i wanted to find out if there is any way for me to find an identical bear (see the attachment) to my favorite bear! he is a wallace berrie c. 1982 light brown bear - he has lost his 'soft fur' as my mother washed him when i was a youngin' - i have searched up and down on ebay and googled... but i just can't even find one image of a similar bear! maybe i'm not looking in the right place?! thanks SO much for your help!!

Back Road BearsHi Bonnie,
You might trying searching for that bear under the manufacturer "Applause" too as Wallace Berrie bought Applause in 1982. Interestingly, Wallace Berrie is the brother of well-known plush manufacturer Russ Berrie of what I believe is now known as just "Russ".
Pretty interesting all the things you can learn with Google's help!
Good luck!

Past Time BearsDon't know if your bear matches any in this ebay store, but you might take a look. Welcome to Teddy Talk!
