This is the Steiff Collectors Club's bear for 2004-2005 and
was created to pay homage to one of Margarete's nephews. Franz
Steiff was responsible for the organization, purchasing and
sales for the Steiff company. He is the one who thought of
protecting Steiff products against copying with a
'Button in Ear' in 1904.
The bear is made of Golden blond mohair, acrylic stuffing,
beige wool felt paw pads, hand stitched black floss nose,
mouth and claws, shaved muzzle and includes a velvet draw
string bag containing a wooden stamp modeled after the company
stamp with the elephant trademark that was used in 1904.
A russet colored satin neck ribbon with a Steiff Club Edition
2004 porcelain pendant around his neck. Gold plated button
with embossed elephant.
Made in Giengen, Germany by Steiff GmbH
12-1/2 inches - 32,0 cm
