Hi everyone!

I'm looking for a few specific, limited edition bears I bought some time ago (in the late 90s), which I may be interested in selling, or at least learning more about, but can't seem to find listed or talked about anywhere online.

The first bear is "Davy the Miner," by Dean's Rag Book Company Ltd. He is number 85 of a total of 500 made. He has a real brass lamp (with "85" etched on it).

I also own several other limited edition bears which haven't come up in my searches, all by Dean's Rag Book Company and with certificates of authenticity:

Little Willie (257 of 1000)
Ernie (110 of 2000)
Eric (114 of 2000)

Does anyone know of the bears, or an online resource for information on bears like them?

Thanks very much in advance for any help!

I believe Davy the Miner was only available to those who went on a factory visit, before Deans moved from Pontypool to Herefordshire.
