Description is an old Teddy bear, can not find out anything about this. It has been in my husbands family a very long time.. It is missing a key but can use a pair of pliers to make it work. The hands have holes in them like maybe something was in the hands. The legs do move. When one arm moves the other arm seems to want to move too.
