I'm looking for a particular bear I had as a kid. It was one of the Avon Christmas teddy bears that they released each year. This one was probably from somewhere in 1986-1988.

My comment was marked as spam, but you can see the bear I found by image searching "1980s avon white christmas bear" without quotes. He's wearing a santa hat and a red sweater with falling snow, and a green band of Christmas trees and the year 1987, also in green.

The link came through in my email just fine. I don't remember his sweater saying 1987, and I also remember it being much longer (it came down to the bottom of his stomach, almost his crotch) but since I got him in 1987 I could just not be remembering right... or he could have been wearing someone else's sweater for years. It... sort of looks like right bear? I really can't be sure because I remember him as more flat and dingy with much love, I don't really remember what he looked like new. XD But I'll keep it in mind, thank you!

So it was NOT the 1987 bear! I will edit my original post.
