This is fascinating and I am going to restore my teddies, thank you! I do feel rather like I do when I take my kitties to the vet, watching you do all this to dear old Teddy!

Aw, what a fabulous little bear! I'm not familiar with Australian bears but he is definitely a cousin to the English bears of my 50s chidhood.

Thank you! Well done! It makes me want to run out and purchase a huggable teddy!

Have you ever seen a teddy bear like this before? Yes, I have looked for the stiff tag or the hole for this type tag. He does not have it. He is my childhood teddy bear and he was 100 years old when I got him. So if you could tell me anything about him I'd be most appreciative

when i repair growlers and certain doll criers i often replace the bellows with a rubber balloon cut to fit snug around the squeaker part and the bottom, then attach the bottom, if its cardboard with the large squeaker holes or if its torn i cut the top out through the holes, cut out some recycled carboard and poke a ton of holes in with a thick safety pin, then i glue it shut, if required i wrap some fabric around the top if the stuffing is very fine
