Little T has been with me since 1966 particularly being at my side for numerous hospital stays. As you can see he is well loved with the only bit if fur left being at the joints. I wish to identify him before he erodes completely. I am in two mind whether I should get him restored (I may keep him then) or donate to a museum if they want him.

Uncanny!

I have just acquired a bear from my local church fete (2018) that is remarkably similar, could be made from the same pattern. Alas this has no tag either.
