BEAR # 239 ARTIST: BONNIE WINDELL of WINDLEWOOD
SOLD
Bonnie Windell has earned
recognition for both her teddy bears and her rats (she designed the Royal Rat
from the Nutcracker Suite for DCAD). She's earned raves the world over for
her creations. This special little bear named Shoo has a problem -- a fly
has landed on his nose. He's got a fly swatter, but how do you hit a fly
on your nose? Shoo is 7 1/2" tall, made of wavy wool, with German glass
eyes, and black embroidered nose and mouth. Fully jointed, he's wearing
vintage pillow ticking overalls and a brown wool felt hat with a feather on it.
The fly is made of ultra suede. As the
autographed
sewn in tag shoes, this is Shoo #2, created in May of 1989. The original
hang tag is not pictured, but it is included.
Hi! I'm Shoo. I gotta
get that fly off my nose.
I gotta hold real still.
Like my overalls?
Darn fly!
See my tail?
Sewn in tag.
BEAR # 302W ARTIST: BONNIE WINDELL of WINDLEWOOD
SOLD
No, it's not a bear. It's a
possum.
And a really cute one at that. He's 6 1/2" tall, fully jointed, and made
of curly mohair.
He has black glass eyes, black embroidered nose and mouth, and a red ribbon on
his little laid back ear and on the end of his tail.
Hi. I'm Posey the Possum.
Have you ever played possum?
I can hang by my tail.
Yes, I know, I'm cute.
My profile.
Sewn in tag.
Yes, there's another
possum on the next
page. And a mouse!
