Character Teddy Bear

Profile picture for user NYteddybears
By NYteddybears, 15 January, 2017
Description

I bought this teddy bear at an anitque store. Tag says designed by Character. Back of tag says Cloth content. 100% Mohair Backing 100% cotton. Looking for history possible year worth is a bouns but not a huge concern for me. I don't know much else on this bear. Any further information would help. Previous owner may possibly be from Tompkins County New York

Re: Character Teddy Bear

Based on your description and the label, this bear is not an antique, but a limited edition bear made Circa 2000 by Charter Club for Macy's department store. They often sell for less than what you paid on ebay.

Re: Character Teddy Bear

Thank you. I'm going to add a picture of the tag. It's rather old looking. But then again. I didn't know Character was still making bears in 2000. Since the company owner died in 1983. Plus most bears now a days aren't made with mohair.

Edit I've got to fix the description. I misspelled something. Adding more pictures too. My bad.
