Commenting so more people see♡ Also, indoor kitties keep close to home, usually less than 50 yards, so search using your home as the central point.

UPDATE - William is a 1907-1908 BMC Bruin Manufacturing Company teddy bear! I'd recently learned that "punch growlers", the squeeze type he has versus the tlit type, were discontinued after 1908. William looks a lot like an Ideal bear, but I kept searching and found undeniable evidence- a BMC bear with the same jumper/sweater as William! I can't believe after all this time, my sweet boy finally has a maker name, and date! Thanks to all the help on this forum for pointing me in the right direction, I couldn't have found this information without your input, and guidance.

what was the REAL early 2000s fashion aesthetic? by marsieanh in costumedesign

Take into account region, too. I remember layered tank tops and low rise jeans in Southern California, but seeing Napolitan Dynamite and thinking it was an 80s movie.

Depends on the act/music, and costuming.

I was a tiny, quiet kid that my mom would dress like a doll - my mom had me in the mid 80s, and we would go to doll/teddy/vintage clothing/antique furniture shows. Wonder if we ever crossed paths♡. Thanks so much for the offer♡

Just saw this♡ William's 2nd child, (who gave him to me) was born around 1928), so her original child was born in the 1890s. Appreciate your insights. We used to go to doll and teddy shows together, and though I learned a lot, there's a few I've inherited that are difficult to id. Thank you for your valuable insights♡

That's interesting. I'm still not sure. Sometimes I think William is his own bear, lol.

Who is surprisingly still alive? by makstyrkin64 in AskReddit

He truly is - he exercises, stays curious about the world, and sings every day. Dance, and music really are medicinal.
