Book Description

Following the first two popular books about the top teddy bear artists by Linda Mullins, this third volume looks at the pioneer bear makers from all over the world. Twelve countries are represented. For each country the teddy bear artists give an overview of the teddy bear scene in their territory. The countries represented by the 147 artists are: America, Austria, Australia, Belgium, Britain, Canada, Denmark, the Netherlands, France, Germany, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore and the USA. Work of the individual artists is shown in colourful photographs which demonstrate how different and interesting artist-made bears can be. They range from miniatures, to big bears, from realistic bruins to whimsical teddies.
