     After some struggle I determined this is from a German company in business for over 75 years. Elegant lady on top.

       Thanks for doing all my legwork for me! It’s getting more challenging finding new works of art to display, so I enjoy when you find some background on some of these.

         No, I had my black and white teddy until he was completely bald, was falling apart, and probably started to stink, sometime in my 30’s.

           My daughter still has “Teddy” – dressed in clothes that he wears to keep him in one piece – in a place of honor on the mantle in her living room. He was a gift from her grandpa when she was 2 years old.

   The right to bear arms is there to protect free speech and stop a tyrannical government from taking your rights away!

   That’s why the first thing that all tyrants do is disarm the people, just like Chavez did when he was first elected. After that, no more real elections in… https://t.co/p3Wrk2GMHr

   I’m sure you have heard about Haitian refugees in Springfield, OH eating peoples pet cats and dogs. The situation is dire.

   Months ago, I raised the issue of Haitian illegal immigrants draining social services and generally causing chaos all over Springfield, Ohio.

   Reports now show that people have had their pets abducted and eaten by people who shouldn't be in this country. Where is our border czar? pic.twitter.com/rf0EDIeI5i
