Growley This is my Bear

This is my Bear that growls wen u lean him over
I have had this bear for 50 years
Short quite flat muzzle really and you can see where it's worn , that there is the pelt of the fleece underneath and the area round the nose is in white fleece
Plastic nose with some stitching I can't remember if it's his original nose I seem to think it may have been replaced at one stage as he went to the dolls hospital in Manchester uk back in 1969 as I think his eye and nose needed repair but I'm not certain
They are plastic and are amber coloured
He's soft I think he has wool inside
He moves his arms and legs I think his head used to turn as well.
He's about a foot and a half tall, his ears are sort of part of his head
My bear will growl if tilted hence his name growly ,he's light brown and seems to be made of some sort of fleece mayb sheepskin his feet and hands and inside his ears used to have fur on them but this has worn away and you can see material
I got him the day I was born my grandmother purchased him for me I think he would have been quite expensive as my grandmother was that type of lady who only bought quality items he would have been purchased somewhere in the greater Manchester area in the uk, other than that I don't know anything about his origins .I love him to bits though
