I believe that this adorable Stuffed Bear was my fathers as a child. He was born in 1949. I was hopeful that one could verify this for me & provide me with the basic info on this so I can learn more ;-) He measures about 9.50" x 14' I'm listing a few more vintage stuffed animals for identification.
I must say first bears are very hard to ID without holding them and closely looking at it for traits of age and maker . I will say this one looks like a Steiff or Herman Zotty bear . From 1950's . He is in wonderful condition and a treasure . I can only tell you this much without holding him but I hope it helps a bit :-))
I found one just now for you to look at . They did change a bit over the years
