Chad Valley Vintage Teddy Bear 1950s
Appox. 38cm (15")
~ Remnant of Chad Valley Tag on side ~
My research and her safety eyes suggest she was made late 50s.
CONDITION – ALSO SEE PHOTOS
This delightful vintage Chad Valley teddy bear is in great condition.
The only wear is to the rexine paw pads which have wear marks and age cracks.
She does seem to have a small patch of residue on her tummy & near her ear which might be glue (it doesn’t brush out)
but it doesn’t affect her looks (see photos).
She also occasionally sheds a bit of sawdust (probably wood wool).
·Approx age ~ Made in late50s
·Working squeaker in tummy
·Filling Kapok (Cotton) & Excelsior (wood wool)
·Vintage safety eyes
·Jointed Legs & Arms
·Rexine carded backed feet & rexine paws
·Mohair
·Stitched nose and mouth & paws
Like most treasured teddies this bear's well-loved appearance is a testament to its history and the affection it has received.
