Description: Fabulous, vintage, stuffed bear from Rushston Star Creation, Atlanta Ga. This rare, Happy Bear is a Rushton original with manufacturer’s tag attached. Made in the late 50’s/1960’s, the Happy Bear plushie, is approximately 16 inches tall. This Rushton Star Creation, "Happy Bear", is one of the rare ,"Happy Bear" characters, of the Rushton Company collection. The hands, ears and tummy seem to be longer, fluffier fur than the arms, legs, feet and back, making this bear quite rare. Many companies have imitated the designs of Mary Rushton's, (Mary Waterman Phillips), wonderful, rubber faced animals. This amazing, original is such an iconic, stuffed bear and is perfect for anyone who loves to collect vintage toys and stuffed animals. It has been loved and is worn in areas and has some matted fur. It is soiled and could use a good cleaning. I believe this Bear was an ivory and tan color- White and tan? Its backside has flattened from laying on its back in storage. We will leave the cleaning to the new owner. There are a couple of good tutorials on YouTube, showing the restoration of these darling bears! Please see photos for measurements and condition.
