Before the birth of Beanie Babies, Ty Inc. introduced
the Attic Treasures Collection in 1993. When they were
first introduced, they were all fully-jointed characters.
In the past year, some of the new additions to the Attic
Treasures line are not jointed and have a similar feel to
Beanie Babies. Some Attic Treasures are dressed while
others may sport only a ribbon around their neck or wear
nothing at all! They have a suggested retail price
of $5-$7. There are now over 160 Attic Treasures to
collect.
The rarest of all Attic Treasures is Tyra the cheerleader bear that was introduced on August 31, 1999 but was retired seven weeks later due to safety reasons. Only a few Tyra Attic Treasures with her pompoms were ever released. The first Tyra with pompoms that sold on auction was on December 5, 1999 on Yahoo for $1,200!
