The first Beanie Baby
The first Beanie Baby to be photographed is in the bushes, sitting on a red plastic cup that has a white ring around the top. The Teddy Bear is red with a pink ribbon around its neck. It has a white heart on the chest with 'I Love You' printed within the heart.
2003 Tush tags
Name secret.
No Swing Tag.
Tush tags are the small fabric tags that are attached to a Beanie Baby's rear end. There are 13 generations of tush tag, each with slight differences. There are also Canadian tush tags, and a few rare Beanie Babies have an embroidered tush tag.
Almost all Beanie Babies have a heart-shaped paper swing tag (sometimes called a hang tag or heart tag) attached with a plastic connector to their ear or other appendage.
