Steiff Club Edition 2008
This wonderful black bear is a replica of the 1907 original kept in the Steiff archives and is limited to 3,000 pieces. He was probably the model for subsequent black bears (such as the Mourning Bear of 1912) but unlike them, he has a sealing wax nose! Crafted from the highest quality mohair with a deep black gloss and stuffed by hand with with fine wood shavings. His paws are made of woolen felt and his mouth and claws are hand stitched. On his pendant this bear is identified as the 2008 Club Edition. This edition features special black-and-white ear tag and, since he is a replica of a 1907 bear, his tag has an underscored button made of patinated steel. 16", 2008
