Giles- William Simpson Teddy Bear Collection

Giles- William Simpson Teddy Bear Collection

This teddy bear was named 'Giles' by Mr William Simpson, an avid collector of more than 250 teddy bears. This bear is made out of gingery polyester fibre and filled with polyethelene pellet and is decorated with a wine colour neck ribbon.

This teddy bear was a gift to Mrs Simpson when she was on a period of "respite care" in the Greenfields Centre in Bridport. It is believed to have been bought from the card shop in Bridport.
