According to legend, a cartoon is how the teddy bear got its start in the U.S. In 1906 it was normal to see society women carrying their teddy bears with them wherever they went and children had their pictures taken with their teddy bears too. American manufacturers were producing every sort of bear including bears on roller skates and bears with electric eyes. These manufacturers faced steep competition from German toy makers and many of the American companies went under.
In Germany, toy making was an old and established industry, and many German firms, such as Bing, Schuco, and Hermann, joined with Steiff in making fine teddy bears. Artist bears also set the stage for a new kind of manufactured bear, the artist-designed manufactured bear. Today artist-designed manufactured bears are offered by Ganz and they offer collectors the opportunity to own artist-designed bears that cost less due to mass production.
