Bose - William Simpson Teddy Bear Collection

Bose - William Simpson Teddy Bear Collection

This teddy bear was named Bose and belonged to Mr William Simpson, an avid collector of more than 250 teddy bears. Bose's fur is of a pale honey colour and her nose is of a darker shade. She has jointed limbs and wears a white bowtie with red spots, a home-made brown and red tartan dress and a pink belt, onto which a blue plastic bear-shaped hairclip is attached. 

She was manufactured for Boots (the chemist) and was given as a free gift when one purchased photographic film. 

Bose goes with Buttons (HMCMS:D2008.3.50).
