ALL of these Beanie GEMS are from my personal collection, which I started in the 1980s! They are ALL authentic, as they were obtained from OFFICIAL TY ADOPTION CENTERS.

They are ALL mint having both mint tags (with acid free tag protector) [UNLESS stated to the contrary], and come direct to your adopting home in an individual zip-lock sleeping baggie from my smoke-free adoption center.

The photo shows the exact Beanie GEM being offered -- although the color rendition may not be as exact as I might like, it is the best I could do.

YOU WANT MY REFERENCES? Check them out at SUNGATO on eBay [and while you are there, click on my ME page to learn more about who I am] ! I have been collecting Beanies since they first appeared, and started my web site over eight years ago to share my enthusiasm for these lovable animals -- so I am NOT new on the scene! I do NOT sell a lot, BUT I have fun trying to help others complete their collection! And I have made friends around the world in the process! Do NOT look for shopping carts and all that commercial stuff -- I do everything the OLD FASHIONED WAY!

I always give you a personalized QUOTE in writing BEFORE you confirm your order.

My Beanie GEMS are offered on a first-come-first-served basis. Supply is limited to my current inventory of these highly collectible critters. Once they are GONE, they are GONE forever!

SHIPPING IS included in my extraordinary bear-bones adoption fees for these Beanie GEMS. I ONLY use PRIORITY shipping [in a box] with TRACKING in the U.S.A.. INSURANCE is included!

NON-USA destinations would be additional -- shipping charges vary according to the foreign shipping method used -- I always use Global Priority, where available. I SHIP MY Beanie GEMS WORLDWIDE!

Humphrey , the camel

issued in 1994 , retired in 1995

<SNIFF>

My favorite camel thought it best to begin his trip Westward, following the

with the three Wise Men so he can get to Bethlehem in time for the Great Biblical Event. He moves very slowly on asphalt turnpikes (he hates flying in planes, and Magic was too busy at Santa's Workshop helping deliver toy parts to the Elves or he would have taken him!). Humphrey wants to make a stop over in California to spend some time with a friend of mine.

God speed, old buddy!.

I really miss you!

Maple "OLYMPIC" , the winning Canadian Bear

issued in August 1997, retired in 1997

According to my research, approximately 5,000 of these Special Olympic Canadian bears were made for distribution/sale. During their original introduction, they were also sold online, but the response was so great, the promoters began ripping off the bottom of the tag with the web address so that no more requests would come in! My sources tell me that about 2,000 to 3,000 of the critters having the intact labels now survive!

This is one of the few, the proud, and the select! VERY RARE!!

$ 275.

Maple "PRIDE" , the FIRST Canadian Bear

PRINCESS INFORMATION DETAILS *

About Her Different VERSIONS and ISSUES

Princess, the Royal Tyrian Purple Bear

issued in December 1997 in honor of Diana, Princess of Wale

The Royal color of this stunning commemorative bear is produced by a very distinctive dye which has been used since ancient times in the Mediterranean area. It was extracted from certain species of sea snails, and it took literally hundreds of molluscs to color a rather small length of fabric. During the rein of Nero, cloth of this hue was reserved solely for the Emperor -- under pain of death!

I saved the RAREST TY Bear until last!!

The Legendary

C E D R I C

16" (40.6 cm)

He is the BRITISH version of TY's 1992 Collectible Bear, the ONLY one which he ever produced having a sewn-in hand-numbered Limited Edition tag and a beautiful CERTIFICATE of LIMITED EDITION!!

ONLY 5000 were ever produced (with LESS than half that number for adoption in the U.K.??), and probably many of them have lost their certificate and are NOT in MINT condition!!

You will NOT see another one offered on the Internet, nor a pic of his CERTIFICATE, and FEW have even seen him nor measured his REAL length-- most references list him as a 21" bear simply because they all copy from each other!!

A ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY TO ADOPT THIS RARE BEAR!!

#2355/5000

$ 900.
