Vintage Teddy Bear Large 27” Jointed Handmade Deanna Duvall My Bears

Description

We commissioned this bear from teddy bear maker Deanna Duvall in the early 1980s. He is 27” long when stretched out and has a (no longer working) growler inside that used to make a grumbly sort of bear noise.
All joints are movable and there is a sewn-in tag saying
My Bears Deanna Duvall
.
Great shape; kept as a decoration only and never used as a toy. And Covid-free! He wears a mask in the last pic to help show his large size (mask not included).
Nonsmoking and pet-free home.
Shipping Questions Answered:
I realize it is high, but the exact shipping rate is calculated by eBay using your ZIP. I don’t add anything for supplies or handling.
This package is “oversized” by USPS standards, requiring a higher shipping rate. I have no control over this. I'm an experienced shipper (over 4,000 packages) and I’ve done all I can to reduce cost. Priority is the cheapest option with the online shipping discount; these will not fit in a Flat-Rate.
Local pickup is free. If you can meet in Orlando, message me and I will create a local pickup option.
