    The original yellow cloth tag on the bottom of the right foot reads “Merrythought, IRONBRIDGE SHROPS, Made in England” (indicating an early Merrythought Bear). The "MERRYTHOUGHT Made in Great Britain" paper tag with the English Flag depicted is attached to its chest. Likewise, a blue and silver "Merrythought Hygienic Toys" paper tag with cleaning instructions is attached. This bear is completely authentic.
    The last picture, Illustration 6, comes from "The Magic of Merrythought" book by John Axe. It says, "Oliver Holmes and his father, Trayton Holmes, the Chairman of the Board of Merrythought Limited, are about to ascend in the Merrythought balloon with the GM-40 Merrythought Teddy Bear".
    It comes from a smoke free, pet free environment and was never displayed or played with.
    This large teddy bear is made of the finest quality materials and to the most exacting of British workmanship! Merrythought is now the only remaining British teddy bear manufacturer - their production is now on a small scale and is focused on the collectors pieces. They became one of the Finest English Teddy Bear Manufacturers.
    A Merrythought is another name for a Good Luck Wish Bone. Merrythought bears are sought after for their fine quality. Merrythought bears are the bears with the secret smile, they have a gentle loving expression and a sweet perky face. Be charmed by a Merrythought!
    You do not see many of these for sale - just try a web or an EBay search! What a wonderful collectible British Bear!!! For an avid teddy bear collector this 1982 vintage bear would be quite a stunning addition to their collection.
    I will be posting many more teddy bears and teddy bear items (Steiff, Hermann, Merrythought, Grisly, Nisbet, etc!), so please
