Morris Michtom Bear recreates the very first American teddy bear as produced by Morris Michtom, founder of the Ideal Toy Company. Michtom's original was inspired by the bear depicted in the 1902 political cartoon by Washington Post artist Clifford Berryman. This famous cartoon also features President Teddy Roosevelt, after whom the teddy bear is named. Presented in commemoration of the teddy bear's 100th anniversary, Morris Michtom Bear is meticulously crafted and highly appointed, capturing the spirit, personality and magic of the original's classic design. Morris Michtom Bear is a true collectible for young and old alike.
