If you go down to the woods today

If you go down to the woods today, you’re in for a big surprise - especially if those woods are anywhere near East Bristol Auctions. Its just consigned a mammoth collection of over 1,000 teddy bears and related collectables. "They’ve come from one single collector,’" says Toy Specialist Andrew. "I walked into their house and my jaw dropped. The entire living room and double garage was completely filled, and I mean filled, with all things teddy bear related!"

The collection comprises of everything from antique Steiff bears to contemporary ceramic bear figures. The collection, consigned locally, was a lifetime’s work for the vendor and will feature in East Bristol’s next Toy Collector’s auction on 20 October.
