Sue, who died in early 2022, her wish was for the collection to be sold by Daniel Agnew at Special Auction Services and has been putting her collection together since 1994, buying at Christie's South Kensington in the 'good old days' of their bear auctions, then from all over the country mainly from local auction and then from Special Auction Services when Daniel moved the bear sales to them.

Each bear is either named or numbered, cross referenced in four folders with original price and place of purchase. Packed into four rooms of her suburban home, with others spilling into other rooms. Susan is survived by her husband Les, who lovingly supported her collecting and wishes them all to go to good new homes.
