    He's in wonderful shape! I have my old teddy bear up in the attic.

    Have to tell you that at first I thought you were talking about some new lingerie. Just sayin'...

    Love your teddy. I have a teddy that turned 62 on Christmas. He doesn't look a good as this one. My teddy lost an eye somewhere over the last half century.

    You're right, antique things do look good with a sepia tint! Very nice and I'm sure that bear is very sentimental!

    Such a special treasured heirloom, Sherry! I think that you should write down the history of this little bear & tuck it into a little pocket or purse or somehow make sure the provenance stays with him. Future generations need to know how old & special he really is.

    Warm Hugs,
    Rett

    Great photos, by the way!
