Hi all, this is my first post as I have never owned what I believe to be two vintage teddy bears.  I have tried doing some research but I am way out of my toy element when dealing with bears.  I've attached a few pics.  The bears have no tags or markings anywhere that I can find.  I just want to find out some info and maybe a price value?  Thanks

I'd say the bear on the left (tan mohair) is a hand-made bear of fairly recent vintage. Could you tell us how it feels (i.e. the stuffing)?

The gold bear (wool plush or synthetic plush) looks like a 1950s or 60s "carnival bear."

Neither bear has a lot of monetary value, but you could start watching ebay auctions of similar bears (categories might be artist bears and antique bears).
