2025 Collection. Limited edition of 1225 pieces worldwide. 28cm, mohair, fully jointed, with embroidered eyes.
“Little Drummer Boy”, originally titled ”Carol of the Drum”, is a popular Christmas song written by American composer Katherine Kennicott Davis in 1941. First recorded in 1951 by the Austrian Trapp Family, the song was further popularized by so many wonderful renditions including Frank Sinatra, Ringo Starr, Boney M and even a duet by the unusual pairing of Bing Crosby and David Bowie. Now it is portrayed as the heartbeat of Steiff's favoured Little Drummer Boy musical Teddy bear. When a poor young boy was summoned to visit Jesus, he was worried he had no gift for the infant. So the Little Drummer Boy played his drum which received great approval, recalling, ”I played my best for him” and ”He smiled at me”. Dressed in a handsome double-breasted buttoned jacket and smart hat, you will undoubtedly smile too when your Little Drummer boy plays to you.
Surface washable with care. Box included. This is a collectors' item and not suitable for children under 14 years of age.
