The Merrythought Bear - Royal Mail Stamp Replica 2018
18" mohair, fully jointed bear. Limited edition of 200 pieces.
From August 2017 to July 2018, an original 1930s ‘Merrythought Bear’ proudly appeared upon an official Royal Mail 1st Class Stamp, as part of a special collection celebrating classic British toys. To commemorate this achievement, Merrythought has created an authentic replica of the iconic bear featured on the stamp - one of the oldest in our archives. What's more, he is presented alongside a certificate incorporating the rare stamp, which is no longer available to purchase from the Royal Mail and is a real must-have for the Merrythought enthusiast. The bear features traditional glass eyes and a characterful, wise expression, whilst vintage-effect mohair plush gives the look and feel of a worldly bear who has been cherished for generations.
He is beautifully presented in a Merrythought drum box, alongside an individually-numbered certificate featuring the real 1st Class stamp.
This is a collectors' item and not suitable for under 14 years of age. Surface washable with care.
