CLOCKWORK MECHANICAL POLAR BEAR OF FRENCH MANUFACTURE. Most likely this toy from the early 20th century is of French manufacture, probably by DeCamps. When wound, the bear rears up and looks about and then gently lowers himself back down to all fours and proceeds forward, all while turning his head to and fro in search of his next tasty tidbit. This glass eyed fellow with white rabbit fur is very lifelike and he has a ferocious look about him when he opens his mouth exposing his powerful jaws. SIZE: 9-1/2″ l. CONDITION: Overall very fine plus and in working order. Minor chip to left front toe. 1-11429 (450-850)
