Dandee Collector's Choice 100th Anniversary Bear. It is an off-white/cream color. It has X stitching, one on each ear, two on each arm and 3 on the tummy/torso area. It has a scarf around it's neck. The scarf is brown, white and red. The pads of the arms and feet are a khaki/tan color and they are of a suede-like texture. I believe the suede is real but I am not sure. This bear came with a smaller dark brown plush bear as well that it carried on it's left arm. Also, unfortunately, it is not in the box and it is missing the tag on it's arm that says 100th Anniversary. I bought the bear new in 2001. It has never been played with. It has been kept in storage for the majority of the years since I bought it and and it is in EXCELLENT condition.

Bush & Gerts
The Bush & Gerts Piano Company was established in Chicago in 1884. Superior manufacturing methods and skilled marketing allowed Bush & Gerts to became a major contender in the American Piano Industry in a relatively short period of time.
In 1924, the large Haddorff Piano Company took control of the Bush & Gerts brand name. Haddorff continued to build the Bush & Gerts name until about 1942, ultimately ceasing all production due to World War II. Bush & Gerts enjoyed the reputation of being very well made, and their earlier models are often very elaborate and expensive. We see quite a few Bush & Gerts pianos surviving today, and they are consistently excellent pianos and a pleasure to restore.
