Yes indeed. There once was a time when Teddy Bears were new, exciting and "all the rage". Click on the photo to see an ad from the 1908 Sears Catalog. And of course we had to pull out more from the archives as well, a 1916 Sears catalog page, and a Made in Japan 1950's "Royal Cub" battery operated bear toy from a previous auction @ Croton's own SeriousToyz.com

I love that battery bear. How adorable is that.
ReplyDeleteDo you happen to know how much that battery op bear sold for?
ReplyDeleteSorry for the delays. I checked my notes and it sold for a little under a hundred dollars.
