A truly exceptional find for the elite Beanie Baby collector. This is an authentic 1999 Ty Signature Bear (Style #4228), notable not only for its beautiful design but for possessing a rare combination of documented production errors that make it a standout piece of Ty history. An item with a single error is uncommon; finding one with this specific trifecta of tag variations is exceedingly rare. The bear itself commemorates the final year of the millennium, featuring shimmering light-brown fur, a sophisticated burgundy and gold ribbon, and the iconic “Ty” signature heart embroidered on its chest. Analysis of Rare Tag Variations: This is not a common Signature Bear. Its value is significantly increased by the following confirmed, sought-after errors: RARE Swing Tag Error: “Gasport” Misspelling The most significant error on this bear. The swing tag erroneously lists the UK location as “Gasport, ” a widely documented and collected misspelling of the correct Gosport. This is one of the more famous errors in the Beanie Baby world and is highly sought after on its own. RARE Tush Tag Error: “Oakbrook” Spelling The tush tag incorrectly prints the location of Ty’s headquarters as “Oakbrook” (a single word). The correct spelling is “Oak Brook” (two words). This is another known variation that adds to the bear’s unique production history. RARE Tush Tag Error: Inc. Punctuation Anomaly A subtle but important error for detail-oriented collectors. The punctuation following “Ty Inc” on the tush tag includes both a period and a comma, appearing as Inc. This punctuation redundancy is a definitive manufacturing flaw that sets it apart. The convergence of these three specific errors on a single Signature Bear elevates it from a simple collectible to a genuine investment-grade rarity. Please study the high-resolution photographs provided, as they document these specific errors and the exceptional state of the bear. The item pictured is the exact one you will receive. This is a premier opportunity to acquire a top-tier piece for a serious collection.
