| DESCRIPTION Manufacturer: Steiff - Spring 2010 PGB 35 Replica 1904 - 35cm (sitting) Ean 403026 Like archaeologists who have discovered an important fossil, Steiff has made a very significant discovery. It’s a find that adds a new chapter to the history of the Teddy bear. Presenting PGB 35 (Plüsch Gestänge Beweglich 35 cm) – the world's second Teddy bear, smaller brother of PB 55. This must-have replica of a previously undiscovered rod-jointed bear will cause a new sensation among serious Steiff enthusiasts around the world. The original Teddy bear, on which the PGB 35 replica is based, was discovered by a prominent collector in Switzerland. It was brought to the company’s attention last year. Steiff’s archivists and designers could hardly believe their eyes. PGB 35 has rod joints with a hand-stitched nose – and is believed to date after PB 35 and PB 55, but before the Richard Steiff bear and Teddy Girl. That means he bridges the gap between rod jointing and disc jointing – and changes Teddy bear history forever! Like all true replicas, every piece is hand stuffed with Swiss wood shavings. In addition to his historical significance, PGB 35 is also a very charming and attractive bear. If you’re a true Steiff fan, your collection simply won’t be complete without this important, appealing bear. Made of finest mohair, dark blond. Jointed, surface washable. Limited Edition 1,904 pieces. IMPORTANTLY: He is 35cm sitting. -thus aprox 50 standing. - The original was found recently- Steiff did not even know of its existance. - They have found that it was made in between the PB 28/35 and the Grey 1905- between which it was thought there had been a big jump/change in design. Finding PGB 35 fills in a gap in their history and in the development of the bear. - PGB 35 is therefore the ONLY rod jointed bear with a stitched nose. Pre - Order Arriving 2010.....
