One caramel (grey/brown) colored mohair teddy bear with jointed moveable limbs and head and the trademark Steiff back hump. The bear has a brown embroidery thread nose and mouth and brown plastic eyes with a black iris. The palms of the paws and the bottoms of the feet are grey/brown felt. There is a red ribbon tied in a bow around the neck of the bear. The proper right ear has a brass colored metal rivet with "Steiff" on the front which attaches the yellow tag to the ear. On the front of the tag is "Steiff, 0202/26, Made in Austria, Preis - Price." On the reverse of the tag is "_material, PA 55 MASS 73, covering 51%wool 49%cotton."

The 0202/26 tag identifies the bear as a caramel Original Teddy which was produced from 1968-1990.
