SONNEBERG MUSEUM BEAR 2015

$449.00

#22 – 2015  LIMITED MUSEUM EDITION 100 PIECES WORLDWIDE.
Introducing the 2015 Sonneberg Museum Bear.
A beautiful 39cm bear made from quality German Mohair, filled with traditional excelsior stuffing and a with a growler. This beautiful bear is a very classic design reflecting the famous bears of early last century.
She wears a broderie anglaise collar & has old world sepia photos appliquéd on the bear.   Her limited edition details are embroidered on her foot pad. As with the last few years, due to a downturn in the US economy there will be no American or European edition of this bear released. Normally 500 pieces in the American Edition and 250 in the European edition. Instead Hermann have issued a very special Museum European Edition of only 100 bears. We have secured our initial stock of bears from the Museum Edition of 100 which we believe will be of immense interest to our collectors and will have an even greater collectable value over the normal editions.

A LITTLE ABOUT THE SONNEBERG MUSEUM.
The Sonneberg Museum is one of the oldest toy museums in the world. In the possession of the museum there are some old Teddy Bears made by Max Hermann, who gave these bears to the museum in the 1920’s and 1930’s. The idea of Max Hermann was to give Teddy Bears to the museum for protection, so that they will be preserved for prosperity. In 1994 Ulla Hermann decided to design a special bear for the Sonneberg Toy Museum every year and to give always the number 001 of each model to the museum. This bear is handed over to the president of the museum every December for the previous year.
These bears are then released in a European (250) and an American (500) Editions in January of the following year. In Australia we mostly get the European Editions but when they sell out we can often get the American ones.
The common sign of all of these Sonneberg museum bears is the embroidered representation of the “Sonneberg Little Horseman” as the symbol of the old tradition of Sonneberg Toys.
Sonneberg is a town in Thuringia , Germany , capital of the district Sonneberg . Till the 19th century it was very well known for its toy industry
