RARE STEIFF Mohair Teddy Bear BEN EAN 036972 Handmade German Ltd Edition

RARE STEIFF Mohair Teddy Bear "BEN" EAN 036972 Handmade German Ltd Edition. "Ben" is an adorable mohair bear, handmade by Steiff, the world's premiere plush toy company.

His fur is beige, tipped with brown, a special coloring process that adds texture, depth and richness. He has the sweetest little face and slight smile & a delightful friendly growl when he is tipped back into a reclining position. Ben is approximately 14.5 inches tall. He is 5 way jointed, so he can be placed in multiple positions.

Ben also has a growler. He was lovingly handmade in 2013 in a limited edition of only 1,500 ever made.

This little Ben is #960. He comes in his original Steiff box.
