Christel and Rolf Pistorius
Because we have more than 3,000 teddy bears in our collection, we have studied a wide range of antique and modern Teddy Bears and plush animals, representing many different makes and styles. We have taken them apart, and we have put them back together again so that we could learn about the various materials and designs. We would like to share this knowledge with you in our simple-to-understand book.
