Henze and Steinhauser (1936) English velvet muzzle in great conditionThese are 2 photos from German catalogues. The black and white pic shows a bear made by a company called Henze and Steinhauser. The other golden bear was made by the same company. So many times this type of bear labelled as American. It is almost impossible to identify many bears because they were produced in massive quantities by hundreds of manufactures (many short lived) so it is sometimes better not to try to guess at the maker of some bruins.
