Default Re: FAo Poppy

I am almost certain it is a Chiltern musical bear 1958/60, it would have a music box inside. a plastic nose amber and black eyes and velveteen paws and pads.
I think I should do a little more research, can you tell me the size and can you tell what the original colour was, maybe you could see under the arm close to the joint. If it is, one sold two years ago at Bonhams for over £400 pounds I think it was £480 but I am not sure, and it was probably in good condition but I don't know that either.
If you can give me the size etc: I may be able to tell you more.
Chiltern went out of production in 1960 and their bears are very collectable now, and increasing in value so look after him while we find out for sure.
