We feel replacing them with anything from a different era
makes them no longer original or authentic

with a massive library of Bear Collectors Identification Guides & Books,
Bear magazines and Internet research.
Everything we can find that pertains to that particular bear we then type in the description.
We do our utmost to correctly identify and price all of our items accordingly.
Professional photographers work to take as many pictures as possible
to help show the buyer what they are purchasing.
