      Dear Old Hank, a chunky early Teddy filled with personality and a friendly face, likely American around 1930s or possibly German Petz with those set in ears and amber glass eyes. He measures 16” and comes in “as found condition” with a light coating of shelf dust, some patina from being dragged with Love through the years and a little bit of his beige mohair left.

      His floss is original, nothing fancy there, back then many a teddy had a wool “yarn” type for floss, his nose is worn so missing some threads, missing his mouth entirely but has most of his 3 claws. He’s rugged and has a great face with his sad eyes, “chiseled” jaw and nearly a 5 o’clock shadow on his muzzle from being hugged so much by the children. His ears are dirty, and there’s a small stain on his back and side. All pads are nicely recovered which is his only surgery done.

       What I love the most besides his face is his very faded red handkerchief knotted around his neck.
