To whom it may concern,


Whether young or young-at-heart, there is a Steiff Teddy for everyone. Steiff Teddy bear was invented nearly 120 years ago. Generations later, the famous Teddies with the legendary "Button in Ear" are as treasured as ever. For all of the Steiff Teddy Bear collectors out there, we all have our own reason to love the Bears and please keep doing that.

Hello everyone, my name is Jerry Dang and I am from Vietnam. Today, I am writing this letter to ask for value evaluation of my Chocolate Teddy bear by Steiff Original Teddybar – Collectors’ Ed.Set 1983 – Made in Western Germany (50@ wool and 50% cotton).

This beautiful 38 year old Steiff chocolate brown youngster Teddy Bears is pre-owned, I had him from a friend who loves collecting classic and vintage collectable things. It has been well cared and displayed by a true lover of Steiff. He belongs to a set of 4 inlding Dad, mom, little baby and himself. The limited edition set was a celebration of the Margaret Strong Museum in Rochester, NY. This collection was sold at the Museum for $800.00.

The original set includes - Dad (0160/42), Mom (0160/32), youngster (0160/26) (mine one) and the 'baby' in Mom's arms (0160/18). Each bear is beautiful chocolate brown mohair with brown leatherette paw pads. Measurements are Dad 16.5 inches, Mom 12.5 inches, young one 10.2 inches, and baby 7 inches, featuring with chocolate brown mohair with leatherette paws, stitched claws on the hands and feet, shoe button eyes, is fully jointed and has a hump back. A squeeze voice box is contained inside the bear and still working well. The bear has full paper tag at the chest and white Steiff tags in the ear read: 0160/26.

He is well cared in a smoke free environment. This wonderful, gorgeous, rich looking Steiff bear is looking to be evaluated on value. Please help me to give him a good value. Thank you so much and I am looking forward to hearing from your team soon.

Hi Jerry thank you for your post.
Just to let you now this is a community site and therefore not able to give valuations. Only specialist toy suction houses can do that i'm afraid.
