Magnolia

  

This is Magnolia, a Russ Berrie Teddy Bear. I didn't name her, it was written in the manufacturer's ribbon. She was a birthday gift from my sister.

Barrymore

This is Barrymore, my teddy bear by Russ Berrie. He is 55.9cm, fully jointed golden brown teddy bear with suede pads and leather neck tie. His name is stitched on his left foot pad. I bought him in 1998 and he came with a certificate. At that time, I didn't know what the certificate for but later I discovered that Barry was a rare teddy bear and highly collectible. Barrymore, LE002, was retired in 1997 and was limited to 5000 pieces worldwide. My Barrymore numbered 2446.
