I have my mum's old one, it must be over 50 years old now, she ripped it's head off when she was a teen and restitched it back on with big black stitching

it too is thread bare in places, and filled with straw
I myself have my childhood bear called Timmy, i got him when i were 11 from a holiday to Great Yarmouth, he's a lovely yellow colour, that makes him.....29.....
