Teddy Bears of Witney - a World-Famous Teddy Bear Collection- is going under the hammer at Special Auction Services in Newbury on Tuesday 3rd December and is expected to make in excess of £150,000.
The collection is owned by Ian Pout, who in 1985 opened Teddy Bears of Witney, which was the first shop in the UK dedicated to selling old and new teddy bears.
Ian Pout “To say that it will be sad to part with the collection is an understatement. However, for better or for worse, the decision is taken and, if we are to part company, I have decided there would be no cherry picking. So, with the exceptions of my own childhood bear and one specially made for our 35th anniversary, every single item in our museum collection will be sold. As well as these, bears and pictures from upstairs, including my office, will be included. If any of them bring tears of joy to their new owners I will be happy.”
