Teddy Bear
1975 (manufactured)
| Artist/Maker | |
| Place of origin |
The Pedigree company did not actually make this Pedigree bear. The company had ceased to make soft toys in 1971. Pedigree, Tri-ang and Rovex were all part of the vast Lines Bros Group of companies, and parts of the company continued to use old trade names. This bear remains brand new as the company gave it to the V&A soon after it was made.
