OWNERSHIP HISTORY OF THIS OSITO THE BEAR:
My wife purchased Osito the Bear in 1999 at an Outlet Mall in Lake Elsinore, CA and displayed him in our home along with his fellow beanies.

In 2001, I was transferred to another duty-station the all the Beanies were taken out displayed.

In 2005, I retired from the military and my wife and son individually stored the Beanies in individual zip lock bags, some remained in their hard case, and placed in a shipping box for our move to our permanent home. My wife and son decided not to display them so it remained in the shipping box kept in the house for 15 years until over the weekend on February 20, 2021.

From 1996-2003 my wife and son were hit with the Beanie Babies craze and as a hobby started collecting them. They collected over two-hundred Beanies and maintained them in excellent condition.

All the Beanies that are listed were purchased at three location: TY Store in Fallbrook, CA; the Outlet Mall in Lake Elsinore, CA and Camp Pendleton Exchange in CA. Along the way my wife and son gave away as gifts to relatives, and friends. I am given the thumbs up to sell some of his Beanies.
