Skansen's Swing Tag History & Info
1st. Generation Tag
What is the Swing Tag ?

The Swing Tag is the Flat Or Book
Style Tag Usually Hanging on the Bear that displays the Bears
Name, Birhdate and Individual StarSigns
What is the Difference Between a
1st Generation Bear  and a 1st. Edition
or Release Bear ?

There is a Big Difference between the Tags
A 1st Generation Tag ( As Pictured )
Is Totally Flat and does not Open like the
Book Style Tags like we Buy These Days!

These Bears are alot Harder to find
and are Worth A Whole Lot More!
See the Rare Bear Section
For more Information


A 1st.Edition or Release Bear Means the Production Run of the Beanie Kid Itself...
You will find Most of the 1st. Edition Beanie kids DO NOT have a " C " Printed on the End of the Tush Tag...
Most of these Bears Have the RRP Style Swing Tag...

When Skansen ran out of certain bears
they Produced a 2nd. and Sometimes
3rd. Release of the Same Bear....

The 2nd. and 3rd. Edition Beanie Kids
have a small " C " Printed on the End
of there TUSH TAG...
What does RRP Style Swing
Tag Mean?


These Tags were Produced with the
Recommended Retail Price Stub Attached to the End of the Tag!

These Tags are alot more Vaulable if the RRP Stub is Still Attached!
What is a Tush Tag!
A Tush Tag is the Material Strip
Sewn on the Back,  Top Part of the Leg... Sometimes Found Elsewhere
Like on Giggle and Wiggle...

Earlier this Year (2003) Skansen Changed
the Swing Book Style Tag... To a smaller
More Manageble Tag... Collectors Know have a Lighter Tag Protector to Protect There Tags without weighing
