Hermann Original

Hermann Teddy Original- the bears with the famous red seal- come from a long line of family made Teddies. It all began back in 1907, in the remote village of Neufang, Germany, where a fellow by the name of Johann Hermann persuaded his family to join him in making Teddy Bears.Five years later his eldest son Bernard joined the company and they shortly moved to Sonneberg. In 1948 the firm changed it's name and trademark to the the now famous Red Seal with Gold Lettering, HERMANN Teddy ORIGINAL. Teddy-Hermann remains a fourth generation, family run operation, with Bernard's granddaughters assuming responsibility for the company. Today Margit Drolshagen and her sister Traudel Mischner are joint managing directors.Teddy-Hermann produces bears that are sought after worldwide and are distinguished from all other bears by the expressions on their faces, notes Margit.
