Riding~ Steiff Bear Cub on Wheels~ CUte, Plush & Strong~

Antique Steiff Bear cub on wheels. Includes 4 wheels, iron steering rod on bear's back, and working pull rod for growl. He was once pale honey with a pink base, but now faded to a blonde.
Mohair is soft to touch and in good condition, with expected wear to his back from rider, and to the paws from the wheels. There are two small holes at his waist, again from a zealous rider I think. The white & red wheels show wear from mileage and age. He is missing all the ID tags, but I tried to show the tiny hole in his ear where the button was once. He has amber glass eyes, a shaved muzzle, lovely air brushing at the eyes, his silk nose stitches have wear, but the sweet smile remains! He wears an added embroidered green felt saddle blanket and a new red ribbon at his neck.
Our Bear cub is in overall great condition. It is rare for the growl to be found functioning~ a joyous addition to your doll and bear collection!
