BEAR # 134     ARTIST: DEBBIE ALTMAN of MOHICAN FOREST BEARS     SOLD
This isn't just a big bear.  No, it's a VERY big bear.  Debbie Altman made this beauty before her bear business became Mohican Forest Bears.  He's 21" tall, and that's in a sitting position.  Completely stretched out, he's 29".  He's fully jointed, made of long black fur.  He's got smooth brown fur on his nose and on the bottom of his paws.  His paw pads are suede, and he's got long leather claws.  He has glass eyes and embroidered nose and mouth.  He wears a red and black wool shirt and a felt hat with a feather on it.  He tips the scales at about 5 and a half pounds, so he obviously enjoys himself at the dinner table.  We don't think this was a one of a kind creation, but Debbie didn't make many of these.  We do know this was a special order in 1989.
Hi! What's your name? I guess you could call me a BIG bear. My front paw.  Do you like my leather claws?
Do you like my floppy hat? Some of the other bears call me Big Foot.  I don't know where they get that. My back paw.  Well, maybe I do need a pedicure.
I do love to eat! I moonlight as a bouncer.  Usually all I have to do is raise my paw. Leather tag on right hip.
We have lots more Debbie Altman bears!
