BEAR # 105 CELESTIAL SEASONINGS
SLEEPYTIME BEAR & ROCKER
SOLD
This is an advertising and promotional teddy
bear from Celestial Seasonings, the people who bring
you all those teas. The company's Sleepytime Herb Tea features this gentle
little bear on its box. On its web site, Celestial Seasonings says
this tea "lets you
curl up under a quilt of flavor and quiet the tensions of your world. The part
of your day shared with Sleepytime is like coming home to find a friend waiting
for you by the fire." Well, here's the friend. The company promoted
the tea with a limited
edition of the Sleepytime
mascot. We got this one (and his rocking chair) from a friend who worked
for Celestial Seasonings in Colorado. Sleepy is an 18" bear, unjointed,
with bent legs, plastic nose, and embroidered eyes (shut, of course). He
wears an embroidered night shirt and a red night cap. His sewn in tag
indicates that he one of a limited edition of 5,000. The wooden rocker
came with him as a kit, and will accompany Sleepy Bear when he comes to your
house.
I love a nice cup of herb
tea, don't you?
Nothing beats sitting in my
rocker after a cup of tea.
My night shirt is
embroidered.
My very own rocker.
It's great for a snooze.
I'm number 3,844 of 5,000.
