Brownie
NO POEM
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Brownie was one of 2 Beanies released before the Original 9 were announced in 1993. Brownie's name later changed to Cubbie. The only way to tell the difference between Brownie and Cubbie is the swing tag. Without the name Brownie on the swing tag, there is no way to tell the difference between a 1st generation Brownie and a 1st generation Cubbie.
