PVC Pellets – indicates early manufacturing run. Oakbrook, IL Error – tush tag misprint (should be “Oak Brook”). NO factory stamp inside tush tag – suggests non-mass production. Shortened Birthday format – another known tag quirk e. Just “1996” instead of full format. Swing tag in perfect condition – protected by original gold cover. Tush tag flawless – crisp and legible. Extra hang tag still attached. Stored in smoke-free, pet-free home. Plush body is bright, soft, and mint – no odors, discoloration, or damage.
