Sun Rubber Company "Sunny Bear"







 The Sun Rubber Company "Sunny" Bear
This is one of the few squeak toys that can cost you a pretty penny. I have waited and waited to get mine. Im not one of the "gotta have it now!" kind of people. I have been very lucky with these guys, I always assumed that I would never own one because of the high amount they bring on Ebay. If you keep your eyes peeled and hold out for just the right luck they pop up in strange places. Mine have been thrifted, given to me as gifts, or saved from the flea market. Made by a few companies they seemed ideal for Baby play. Sanitary, Natural, and Non-Toxic, all words that moms drool over today. In 1958 they where wonderfully ahead of the game when it came to toys.

I wish I knew who made the one with the belly button. I got him from a woman who was selling her entire collection. She had a lot of very rare squeaks, ones I bought from her i had never seen before or since. This little bear with his happy tummy is one of my all time favorites.













These are the 10 that I own plus a cute advertisement for them and 
this sweet yellow bear i wish was mine.
Look at them all. Each with their own charm. 
sorry, but I need to gush about that monkey for at least one sentence. 
ARE YOU KIDDING ME???
Look at that cute little hat, and his sweet chimp cheeks, 
he is my number one top of the pops want.
