The first bears ascribed to Knickerbocker are from around 1925, when the company started to use permanent labels. The company was proud to produce high quality toy animals and called them \'Animals of Distinction\'. The Knickerbocker bears were by far the best American bears from that period, but still quite affordable.
In the 1960\'s, the company won the license to manufacture \'Smokey Bear\', until 1977 en became reasonably famous with it. Even a talking version was made, with a build-in tape that told the children about preventing forest fires.

In 1968 the company moved to Middlesex, New Jersey. There, they imported the different parts from Korea, sown and all. At the end of the 1980\'s the company was closed down.
From around 1925, Knickerbocker started to use permanent labels. Usually the labels were sown into the centre seam. From the late 1940\'s, a satin label was used with a small figure in a horseshoe with the words: \'Made under sanitary laws\', which meant that the plush and the stuffing was hygienic.
In the 1950\'s, to the Knickerbocker logo from before the war (\'Animals of Distinction\') a second new registered trademark was added: \'Joy of a Toy\'.
From the New York label, you can determine that the bear should be from the beginning of the 1960\'s, because the company moved to a factory in Middlesex, New Jersey in the second half of the 1960\'s.
