>The Painting Room is one of the most traditional
working places of the HERMANN-Coburg Teddy Bear fabrication, even if this
working place is not any more used today as frequently as in former times.
All along there existed a little room, where the soft animals like monkeys, tigers, cats or lions and also some of the Teddy Bears were painted over with a technique, which is a kind of the today's called airbrushing. Still today the knowledge about this old original technique is in the possession of the HERMANN-Coburg company, and still today the old original spray guns with their fine jets are used.
You must have the feeling of an artist, when you want to awaken plush animals alive with your spray gun. In former times, when the toy makers were still a very poor folk, there existed in each company many men and women, who were true artists, but who had to work in the same in the factories like all others, because no other work existed for them to earn their money. Therefore many of the old soft animals, which were painted with fine lines and shadings by these old talented workers, are real artworks.
>It
is very difficult to paint still today soft animals and Teddy Bears in the
same perfect kind as in former times. Only the most skilled women with the
best feeling are able to do this artistic work. Some examples of the today's
HERMANN-Coburg Teddy Bear collection are the Replicas of the old HERMANN
Baby Bears or the old HERMANN Flexible Bear. But there are also some of the
New Generation Bears like the red Devil Bear, the little Chimney Sweep Bear
or the creepy Count Dracula Bear.

Our little sightseeing tour through the HERMANN-Coburg
workrooms comes now to its end. In the time during your visit our little
Teddy Bears have grown up and can now be released out of the responsibility
of their obstetricians. To say good bye to all the
Hundreds of HERMANN-Coburg Bears produced weekly we will stop for one last
time in the HERMANN-Coburg Shippment Room.
