Weird thing is in my first job I was posted from UK to Berlin in 1987. We used to go into East Germany on day trips. I was good friends with a woman who worked for the East German government. We kept in contact by letter (no internet in those days) I was always impressed with her immaculate English and handwriting. I was in Berlin when the wall came down. We lost contact from about 1982. I still have her letters and it's clear from reading them that she knew that the wall was coming down at least 10 month before it did. One letter dated February 1989 she talks about great changes before the year in out. She ended up working for the all German Government but sadly died in 1998.

German teddy bears have a proud and long tradition for being high quality children's toys. Most renowned is (I think) the German Steiff Company but that was located in West German during the Cold War. What I could find from former East Germany is a Richard Diem Teddy Bear. It was manufactured first in the 1930s but a 1950s (East Germany period) model is offered today for 328 Euros. Description: Rare vintage Richard Diem GDR East Germany Teddy bear gold mohair pluche 1950s 15 inch height or 38 cm. Growler glas eyes. Fully jointed. So it was by no means a cheap teddy bear.
