Annette Funicello Black Circus Bear. Actual QVC Sample.

Description

This bear is from the Annette Funicello signature line of collectible bears sold on QVC in the early ‘90s. I worked in production at QVC at the time, and this bear was a vendor sample from Knickerbocker, the manufacturer, and brought to a pre-production meeting by the QVC Buyer. (I admired it, and the Buyer gave it to me—a common occurrence back then.) As such, it didn’t come with its tags, COA, or box.
The bear is approximately 11” tall, has articulated arms, legs, and head, and comes with a buckled collar around its neck. It can be displayed standing (with a doll stand—not included) or seated. It has been kept in storage since I acquired it and is in like-new condition.
