Ambrose- William Simpson Teddy Bear Collection

Ambrose- William Simpson Teddy Bear Collection

This teddy bear was named 'Ambrose' by Mr William Simpson, an avid collector of more than 250 teddy bears. This teddy bear is made out of a peach coloured fabric and has been dressed in a red knitted jumper with a rosette of red, green and white. This teddy bear was a charity bear for the Devon Air Ambulance as shown by the red helicopter in the rosette. It is a replica of the mascot which was carried in the air ambulances.
