Winnie the Pooh Type bear

I have a yellow or golden colored bear that resembles Winnie the Pooh. It is approximately 20 to 24 inches in length, black button eyes, one has been replaced, missing the black felt nose and has the small red and pink felt mouth. It has a red and white strped shirt sewn on the front only...stripes are horizontal. The tag on the bear is from the Smile Novelty Company from Brooklyn, New York. The bear has been in my family from at least the early seventies, maybe sixties. I have not seen one like it and I haven't been able to find one. I was just wondering if it was worth anything. I hope the tag helps. The actual bear fur is in good shape with no major stains. A value, if any, would be great to know. It has never been left in outside storage so there is no mold or weathering issues.
