Please come visit me for unique home décor and gift items offered on my website www.thechromecactusboutique.com! This is Classy teddy bear style #4373. He was introduced on 04/30/2001 and retired a little over 4 months later on 09/07/2001. Classy was part of a competition that Ty ran for collectors to design a beanie baby bear online and the “People” voted for their favorite in July 2001. It has a special hang tag with "The People’s Beanie" on the front, instead of what a 9th Generation hang tag would look like. A cute teddy bear plush, whether you're a collector or not! He has pretty cerulean blue plush with lighter colored swirl designs and wears a sheer blue ribbon. He has a circular chest badge with a #1. The poem on his swing tag reads: "I’m proud to be the Beanie you chose I know for sure my happiness shows Thanks so much for creating me It’s great to be the People’s Beanie!" Always kept in a non-smoking environment, Classy is in mint condition with mint tag that has been kept in a tag protector.
