Bill and Jean Trenter teddy bears

I was given some bears that I am curious about! They have tags on them, but I cannot find out anything about the company and the artists. The artists are Bill and Jean Trenter, and their company name is "Old Timey Bears." The tags have hand-written numbers and names on them, and say that each bear is unique. The arms and legs move, and they range from 12 - 22" in length. Some have clothes on them, and they are made of mohair. I am curious about the company, when they were made, and their worth. The tags also say that they were sold in some state museum gift shops. I have attached a photo of 3 of them. Thank you!
