Vintage PIPE COLLECTORS DREAM !! Figural Face with removable snuffer top hat Hand Carved Italian Briar In MINT CONDITION! This is an unbelievable estate find! This pipe had been carefully stored away for MANY years! Here's what appears to be an unsmoked vintage carved figural face pipe with removable top hat! Is the face Uncle Sam? Or Abe Lincoln? The pipe is a Hand Carved Head with hair and beard made in Italy. What makes this pipe a FANTASTIC ESTATE FIND is that it still has its snuffer top hat! The hat and the pipe bowl are both what appears to be Birdseye Briar from the 1970s or earlier. The carving is like Meerschaum but in Briar wood. I dont see any fills in the briar, and its in immaculate shape/condition for its age. www.thepaisleyocean.com -

Original Teddy Bear Anniversary Edition
6:12 PM PST, 1/10/2010
This Vintage 1987 85th Anniversary Edition Teddy Bear is approximately 16 inches tall with a soft golden brown fuzzy coat. He's up for sale this week only on EBAY in my EBAY store www.thepaisleyocean.com Here's the story behind the creation of the first stuffed "Teddy's Bear" toy. "Eighty-five years ago, the President of the United States Teddy Roosevelt, went on a hunting trip. In the forest he found a bear cub, and refused to shoot it. Newspapers across the country printed a cartoon of the President and the Bear Cub. It was seen by millions of people including a man in NewYork who decided to make a toy bear that looked just as soft and cuddly as the one in the newspaper. With the President's permission, he called it Teddy's Bear. That man was Morris Michtom, founder of the Ideal Toy Corporation. From then on the increasingly popular Toy Bears became known as Teddy Bears. Caltoy has been given the honor of introducing a replica of the original Teddy Bear in celebration of the 85th anniversary." Caltoy, Inc. a subsidiary of View-Master Ideal Group, Inc., Nat L.
