FINE 15" SCHUCO YES-NO TEDDY BEAR 1920s

"Hallo":  I was born right before Christmas sometime after 1921, in Nuremberg,  way over in Germany, at the famous Schuco Toy Factory.  This part of my life is a little fuzzy to me, so, my current Mom & Dad looked up some stuff on the internet and found out the first "YES-NO" Bear was patented by the Heinrich boys, Muller & Schreyer, in 1921 and they made other little bears like me for 10 years or so.
 Right after I was born I got to go to America, to Colorado and Jamie's house, where "she" wrote her name on my right back paw.  My current Mom says I'm fifteen inches tall, I'm Plush and Honey colored, I've got glass eyes and that I'm "just adorable" and I used to have a vocabulary of two words..."yes" & "no".  Sometime, long ago, I forgot how to say "yes" and that is why my current Dad thinks I'm probably a Girl bear and belonged to a "girl" Jamie....he says "think about it"....
I have some wear on all my pads and three are worn enough that you can see my excelsior stuffing and my tail is worn, too.  When you move my little tail left or right I can say the word "no" or "nein"...I still remember a little German...I really don't say anything, but my head turns left and right...and my current Mom says "once upon a time" I could also say "yes" or "ja", and that sometime, when I was little, I was in a small accident and my "yes" word and my "Growler" just quit working.  My head still moves up and down to say "yes", but my little tail doesn't make it happen anymore.  My current Mom says my "yes" and my ""Growler"" and my worn pads could probably get fixed "by the right person", but that I'm "awfully darn cute just the way I am".  My current Mom & Dad say I get to go make another family happy, just like I have been doing for a long, long time.
My current Dad says he will pack me properly and ship me just promptly by insured UPS and it will only cost $8.
 I don't know what it means, but he also said "I don't have any reserve".....
See 'ya real soon!
PS: My Dad says it's OK if I go back to Germany, but you ought to clear it with him.
