The Teddy Bear Hall of Fame. A pictorial
celebration of a century of historic teddy bears, with profiles of nearly 100 of the
world's favorites. Featuring 120 color photos. This delightful book presents the story of
the teddy bear over ten decades, paying special tribute to those who deserve an honored
place in the Hall of Fame. Beginning with Teddy Roosevelt's bear (who gave the teddy its
name in 1902) to the bear recently sold at auction for a world-record
price of $180,000, here are the teddies that have made history--where
they came from, who created them, what made them special. As well as
renowned makes like Merrythought, Dean's, Steiff, Bruin, and
Hermann, there are bears made famous through literature, such
as Winnie-the-Pooh and Paddington Bear. review
