<span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #008000;">Back when I was a teenager working at the appliance store I found a whole case of those little Frigidaire bears. They were soft plastic and looked just like the one in the ad. I guess they were used to demonstrate washers years ago. Frigidaire was the store's main brand. I should have kept them.</span>

They were not so much demonstration bears as giveaways for kids who came in with parents. The bear was attached to a motor mounted beside the agitator. I remember watching one from out in front of the store in Cocoa, FL.
