KEY INFORMATION

Lot 172

Full Lot Description

"Edward (also known as Big Ted)", British vintage teddy bear, 1950s, amber and black glass eyes, vertically stitched black nose, fully jointed, replacement felt pads, faded, stuffing has shifted to limbs and neck, mohair is thinning in places, 30"/76cm. NB: The vendor stated: "Big Ted" also known as "Edward Bear" started life in the 1950s when he lived in the Physiotherapy Department at T.U. ??. I found him in 1984 lying in the outside store (a 'porta-cabin' outside the department). He was in a sad state- it seemed that everyone had forgotten him and at first I gave him a patch for his missing eye. I later gave him two new glass eyes (the same size as his original one).
