Vintage Pickford Bears Sherwood Brass Button Teddy Bear, Fully Jointed, 10.5 Inch

Pickford Bears Ltd. made Sherwood for its Brass Button Bears collection in the 1990s. The sewn label identifies both the maker and the named bear, and the original paper hangtag remains attached. The brass button is the collection’s identifying detail; Sherwood’s jointed limbs let him sit or stand for display.

His knit diamond-pattern sweater, tweed-style cap and wire-rimmed glasses give this particular bear a friendly, bookish character. At 10.5 inches tall, he is a manageable size for a shelf or a collection of vintage character bears.
