ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This is the first version of America. All profits from the sale of the blue America were donated to the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund for 9/11.

On September 28, 2001, a Ty-signed blue America was listed on eBay by a Ty employee to raise money for the American Red Cross. The auction ended on October 5, 2001 with a high bid of $24,000. The winning bid was submitted by eBay user Ryebypost from the UK.
