SUMMARY
All lovers of Steiff dolls and toys will be delighted by this compilation of antique Steiff advertisements which were run in the popular German illustrated newspaper Illustrirte Zeitung between the years 1911 and 1929. Every collector will enjoy finding favorite bears and toys in the ads -- as an aid to dating them, to finding out their original prices and to see how they were originally promoted. A nostalgic look back at the playthings of yesterday, this group of ads, augmented by postcards of the period, give us a clue to the variety and creativity of the children's toys made by this famous German company and partially explain the reverence with which these toys are held today.Ayers, Dottie is the author of 'Advertising Art of Steiff: Teddy Bears and Playthings - Dottie Ayers - Hardcover' with ISBN 9780875883632 and ISBN 087588363X.
