This
bear was a part of my beloved late grandmother's large personal
collection. The prices that they are listed for are approximately the
retail prices that she paid for each bear not including tax and shipping
and handling when she bought each bear as they were released back in
the 1990s. She typically paid $50 to $100, or more for each Annette Funicello bear depending on the size of each bear, how limited each was, and what collection each bear was from.
