I now have a much clearer vision of how my collection should look. I love all of my bears, but have simply run out of room and want to cut back a large percentage, so I can re-grow it with my current knowledge. So it’s time to call the auctioneers in, I can’t think of any safer hands to pass them onto than my teddy friend, Daniel Agnew of Special Auction Services, to send them all to their new homes. I think it would be great fun and I will enjoy seeing my beloved bears finding new owners.” “I first started collecting teddy bears because my daughter-in-law bought me a teddy bear and the Teddy Bear Encyclopaedia for a milestone birthday, which sparked an interest and I started looking at antique bears online.

  • For Immediate Release the WORLD's OLDEST TEDDY BEAR
    For Immediate Release 30 August 2006 Contact: Zoë Schoon 020.7752.3121 [email protected] THE WORLD’S OLDEST TEDDY BEAR MUSEUM TO BE SOLD BY PRIVATE TREATY AT CHRISTIE’S SOUTH KENSINGTON The Teddy Bear Museum, Stratford-upon-Avon South Kensington – Christie’s are pleased to present, by private treaty, the sale of the world’s oldest Teddy Bear Museum, based in Stratford-upon-Avon. The award-winning museum was opened by self- confessed teddy bear enthusiast and well known broadcaster Gyles Brandreth and his wife Michele, on 4th July 1988. Since then, this popular little museum has gone from strength to strength in one of England’s most celebrated towns. Stratford-upon-Avon attracts five million tourists annually and visitors to the Teddy Bear Museum have ranged from royalty to Tony Blair’s bear, Lynton, who recently spent his summer holidays at the Museum. The collection, personally put together by Brandreth, numbers a thousand bears and related items. It is to be sold as a going concern, along with the Tudor building (once the property of King Henry VIII) that has been its home for the last 18 years. “The Museum has come of age and it’s now time for us to find new owners for the museum and its unique collection. Our children are all grown-up and my work commitments mean that I simply don’t have the time to give it the care and attention it deserves. We want to find new owners for the Museum who will love it as much as we do and see it go from strength to strength.” Said Gyles Brandreth Highlights of the collection include several early Steiff bears, the earliest being Growler, a much- sought-after Steiff rod-bear, circa 1904.

  • CEA LIST's Participation at the CLEF Chic 2013
    CEA LIST's participation at the CLEF CHiC 2013 Adrian Popescu CEA, LIST, Vision & Content Engineering Laboratory, Gif sur Ivette, France [email protected] Abstract. For our first participation to the CLEF CHiC Lab, we submitted runs to the mul- tilingual ad-hoc and multilingual semantic enrichment tasks. Given the strong mul- tilingual character of the evaluation corpus, the main objectives of the experiments were to test the efficiency of semantic topic expansion and consolidation based on Explicit Semantic Analysis (ESA) versions in different languages. Another objective was multilingual fusion of results obtained in the different languages of the corpus. ESA was adapted for the 10 languages that are best represented in the Europeana corpus. Wikipedia dumps from March 2012 were used for French and English and from March 2013 for the other languages. One problem that arises when model- ing short documents, such as queries, with classical ESA vectors no information is available whether the concept is related to the entire topic only to a part of it. To overcome this problem, two adaptations of ESA (ESA-C) are Wikipedia concepts that are linked to the highest number of concepts from the original topic. In the ad-hoc task, ESA and ESA-C have two roles: to expand the topic with related con- cepts and to create consolidated topic models which contain the original topic words along with other related keywords. We submitted both monolingual and multilingual runs without topic expansion and using topic expansion and consolidation with clas- sical ESA and ESA-C. The best results are obtained in a multilingual setting with no expansion and ESA-C topic consolidation.

  • For April 2021 – by Eileen Truby You Are Holding a Dinner Party for 5 Gues
    U3a Creative Writing Group – “Writing prompt” for April 2021 – by Eileen Truby You are holding a dinner party for 5 guests plus yourself. The guests will be well known people, not necessarily living, but who have contributed to society in some way. Write about why you chose them and describe briefly conversations they would have had with each other and set the menu for the dinner. The guests I would invite are: Ventriloquist Peter Brough and his ventriloquist’s dummy Archie Andrews Ventriloquist Keith Harris and his puppet Orville the Duck Annette Mills and her string puppet Muffin the Mule Harry Corbett (magician and puppeteer) and his glove puppet Sooty the yellow teddy bear. Charlie Drake - Comedian/singer/slapstick artist Host - Eileen Truby The menu would be plain and simple and preferably something that could be eaten one handed as most of my guests would be using one of their hands to manipulate their puppets. I’d choose: Tomato soup with croutons so the guests wouldn’t have to mess about with breaking and buttering rolls. Homemade fish and chips, preferably served in newspaper (easy to pick up with fork or fingers). Finger bowls will be needed for use before dessert. Jelly and custard for dessert (easy to eat with a spoon). Drinks would be beers, wine, soft drinks and tea/coffee. I’ve chosen these guests as they remind me of the innocence and carefree days of my childhood. My children look at me as if I’ve gone mad when I tell them I used to listen to a radio program that starred a ventriloquist dummy called Archie Andrews.

Dissertation, Walden University EDRS PRICE MF-$0.75 HC-$6.60 PLUS POSTAGE DESCRIPTORS *Adult Education; *Course Content; Course Descriptions; *Doctoral Theses; Teacher Developed Materials; *Teaching Techniques IDENTIFIERS *Doll Collecting ABSTRACT The author has attempted to organize the many materials to be found on doll collecting into a course which will provide a foundation of know]edge for appreciating and evaluating old dolls. The course has been divided into sessions in which old dolls will be studied by type (images, idols, and early playthings; child, doll, and social realities; wooden dolls; wax dolls; papier mache and composition; china and parian; bisque dolls, cloth dolls; celluloid, metal, leather, and rubber dolls; and doll art in America) in basically the same chronological order in which they achieved popularity in the marketplace (1800-1925). The instructor is urged to employ a variety of teaching strategies in the presentation of the material. A mixture of lecture, slides, show and tell, and much student participation is encouraged. Handouts are provided whichcan be given to students at the end of each session. Brief annotated bibliographies appear at the end of each chapter,as well as a selected bibliography at the end of the course. Thecourse has been designed to introduce the beginning doll collector to the techniques employed in the manufacture of old dolls, to help the novice identify a doll of excellent artistic merit, and to acquaint the collector with some of the better known names in doll making.

  • Some Key Toy Manufacturers
    45936 MOC Must Toys Book6 12/1/05 7:53 am Page 41 Some key toy manufacturers Britain Abbatt Toys Paul and Marjorie Abbatt were pioneers of innovative educational toys in the 1930s. They set up in business in 1932 selling toys to friends and by mail order from their flat in Tavistock Square, London. Demand was such that in 1936 they opened a child friendly shop at 94 Wimpole Street, designed by their friend the architect Ernö Goldfinger. The Abbatts were his main clients at the time and he designed toys and nursery equipment for them.
