Steiff Made Many Toys in Addition to Stuffed
Animals
The Margarete Steiff Toy Company was established in the early 1900's. The first products were felt toys, hand sewn by Margarete and eventually her staff. It was Margarete's nephew, Richard, that convinced her to produce the first teddy bear. The teddy bear was made famous by Theodore Roosevelt's refusal to shoot a cub bear on a hunting trip.
Steiff has produced a number of toys over the years. In the early days, many Steiff stuffed animals were on wheels. There were also unique dolls of felt. The rubber Mecki dolls originating in the 1950's are still produced. Over the years Steiff toys included hand puppets, purses and even some unusual accessories such as decorated radiator caps for automobiles
