15" Hecla Teddy
Distinguished by the Rust Colored Nose & Claws
Hecla was made by a short lived American Company during the Teddy Bear Boom.
This is why they are hard- to- find.
Hecla competed with Steiff. They even imported Mohair from Germany and
many of the bears were sewn by German Workers, making it difficult to tell them from Steiff.
The difference was the ear placement. Hecla's ears were set further apart
.
Condition is good , small patch on foot pad.
$ 2800.
