Bear Noel, from the V.I.B. collection, was manufactured by The North American Bear Company® and was first offered in the Fall of 1989. He is a limited edition bear, is now retired, and no longer available. He is 21" tall and made from a soft white velour. He has black plastic eyes, black plastic nose, and extended muzzle. He also has a fuzzy white beard.

V.I.B. Bear Noel comes dressed in his original white corduroy coat trimmed with faux sheepskin fur then accented with a irridescent gold belt with gold buckle. On his feet he wears faux leather boots trimmed in the same faux sheepskin fur as the coat then accented with gold lame' ribbons and jingle bells. On his head is a stocking cap made from the same fabric as the coat, trimmed in the same faux sheepskin fur, and accented with pinecones and berries. A white faux sheepskin fur pom dangles from the end of the cap. Over his shoulder he carries a gold lame' sack with a furry white bear and a candycane peaking out from the top. It is attached to his shoulder with a gold lame' ribbon.

He is in fabulous condition with no rips, tears, stains, or repairs. He comes complete with his wrist tag and is #6676 in a limited edition of 8,000 pieces.
