  1. Your quite welcome, glad I could help Fritz
  2. Nice bayonet, yes it is a ww2 Japanese Type 30 Arisaka bayonet, the Arsenal is Tokyo or Kokura. Thanks for sharing!
  3. Thanks efsgirl! Any. Thoughts on era? Pre 21? With the very pronounced hump, could this be a very early Steiff?

  7. Thanks Vintagefran! Could be a tough one though. Fritz

  10. Looks like a 2nd model Luftwaffe dagger grip, could be navy but looks more luft to me.
  11. Thanks Manikin!! I wish I could post a few more pics of him but unfortunately only limited to four. I look forward to hear if you find any info on him and if others might have any thoughts.
  12. Been doing a lot of reading, could this be a BING made bear?
  13. Now that's neat!!
  14. Any thoughts on who might have made this bear? Being as big as he is, could this have been a showroom window bear? Just a thought.
  15. Was just asking for info on the poster, no real mystery except I have not located another one for this race and these types of posters aren't my main collecting realm, bought them because they are nic...

  17. It measures approx 24" X 16".
  18. Thanks guys! Anyone know where I could locate another example? I'll post threads on the other two later today. I suspect this one is a rather rare one. Thoughts? Fritz
  19. I looked pretty close with a loop and couldn't see a hole ore maybe where one might have been, but, and this may be stretching it, if he was an early 1946-47 bear when they restarted production, maybe...
  20. Looking at the name on the tag a bit closer, could it be "Boyle" ? Thought? I've done a lot of looking at pictures and references and I'm pretty sure he is a Stieff and comparing his construction to...
  21. Thanks for the info Manikin! He's a nice one, the tag is in the arm seam, hmmm. I look forward to hearing if there is any mention of the name "Doyle" in your book.

  34. Thanks Vetraio50. Fritziii
  35. I do have his medals, less the silver star but I do have a reissue certificate for it detailing what he did to earn it, really amazing what he did to turn the tide on the engagement around the regimen...
  36. Thanks Scott, I acquired it indirectly from the vets family thru a friend who purchased it from them here locally, The Lt was born and raised in my area and lived here most of his life so it makes it ...
  37. Fantastic prototype!!

  45. Come to think of it , his feet and paws look like worn felt, ya know how it looks when it's worn down, if ya know what I mean.
  46. Thanks Manikin! He is a neat little guy. His feet and paws are more of a cloth like cotton material, he does feel like straw filled.
  47. Thanks Manikin, she's a cute little cat with nice charecter. I'm thinking 1920s, what do you think?
  48. Thanks Manikin :). He's one of my wife's favorites.
  49. Thanks Manikin, yes if he could only talk. He has so much charecter , he's a very charming little fellow. My wife loves him. Steiff sure knows how to create these bears and give them a personality.
