Steiff Teddy Bears

This cinnamon-colored mohair center-seam bear, circa 1908, wearing a silver and paste brooch with the name “Will,” sold at Christie’s in 2004 for $55,304. Although far from the most expensive bear ever sold, it is one of the rarest in the world and was owned by Pam Hebbs, who was considered to be one of the world’s greatest antique teddy bear collectors and evaluators, and author of the 1998 book, Collecting Teddy Bears.
