Hi, this may be an odd request, but is there anyway anyone might be able to help me identify the brand of this bear? I'm new and sort of lost.
I know that it's approx. 3 ft. tall and 1 ft. wide, and used to have a bow/hat on its head and a collar around its neck (there a loose string on his head and on his neck from where they once were). It was bought in Boston.
I'd really appreciate some information if you have it (company name, model something).
My niece and her family experienced a rather devastating fire in their home recently and lost everything they own. She's had this bear for about 12 years and I was hoping that I could find one for her, since she misses it a lot. If I had ever seen a tag, I might have been able to remember, but she was given it as a gift when she was born.
P.S I'm very sorry about the cat in the photo. It seems to be the only photo I can find of it. Ha ha.
Thank you!
Posts: 3Hi, wondering if anyone has any idea yet? I thought I could provide a few more details:
It was given to her in 1998, bought in Boston (possibly at a hospital gift shop?)
After asking her a few more questions, I figured that the bears about 32 inches high, doesn't have "pads" on his legs or arms and I'm not sure if he has a mouth of not. He's a bit faded, but he was a sandy colour before.
Thanks, hopefully someone knows, she's just devastated!
Could it be a Build a Bear? A quick eBay search brought up these three, which are smaller, but have a similar look: http://cgi.ebay.com/Build-Bear-Three-La … 230d4a0130
Good luck,
Becky
Posts: 3Possibly, I tried checking the site but to no avail. I'm pretty sure he was premade, with a bow on his head (I recall her telling me why she wanted him to be a boy teddy, not a girl when she was older, so I think he was wearing a ruffled collar/bow).
Thank you for the help though! If worse comes to worse, I'll buy her another.
Just sent you an email................
