Does it have a gold button in ear ? Saying Stieff ? I assure you he is not worth 10's of thousands of dollars . The highest price bears usually Stieff and very early in a rare color can bring several thousand . Your bear is hard to see in bottle .The body tells a lot about age and maker . Like a hump in back . long arms , pads on hands and feet ect . Include height and more info . My first glance tells me his sweater is not from 1920's it is newer than than . More photo's needed and look at ear and maybe a closer up of face and fur . It does not appear to mohair by photo .He is cute .
THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY , IT DOES HAVE LONG ARMS AND LEGS AND HAS PADS ON HANDS AND FEET !!! HES LIKE 8 TO 9 INCHES HIGH !! HE HAS A BAG GOLF EQUIPMENT ON BACK,?? I WAS WONDERING HOW DID HE GET IN THE BOTTLE ?? AND THANKS ABOUT HIM BEING CUTE !!
They use decompressing the air in bottle and bear it sucked in as he will deflate with no air in his body .
How to get a item inside a bottle here is a video as example of how to get a egg into a bottle same principle applies to your bear

Manikin,
do you know alot about stuffed bears?
packat I know Pretty much and if I don't know my friend does I worked with at Doll museum and part of it was Bears . So I guess 3o years of seeing bears makes me know something :-)
HELLO MANIKIN , BY THE WAY I LOVE YOUR USERNAME !! I WAS WONDERING HAVE YOU SEING BEARS IN BOTTLES BEFORE AND IF SO WHATS THE LOWEST OR HIGHEST OF ITS VALUE ??
Yes I have seen them in bottles in fact they still make them . Here is one as a example
I would like to see the golf bag if you could photo it . Your bear appears to be newer from all I can see from him and way he is made .
