My Lincoln Ls Has A Stutter In It

Reginald of Jahrhundertbär

I ask you today to present a beautiful book times:

Perhaps it knows one or the other. It was published in 2001 and was written by the singer and bear artist Dorothea Bartels and Daniel Müller

History:
on a doll and bear market discovered Dorothea Bartels an old Steiff bears from the period around 1905.
She is immediately fascinated by the strong expression of his eyes and buy it together with the accompanying spontaneous case of a dealer. As it turns out later while rummaging in the trunk, the name of the bear, Reginald and he already bears an adventurous life behind him. Dorothea research from records, letters, photographs and newspaper clippings and goes on a journey into Reginald's past. This takes you around the globe. In the India by 1905, through two world wars, in an orphanage in France, to America in the world of opera, film and television ...... The case is like a time capsule from another world.

The book is unusual in loving with many old photos, letters, vintage
it is really one of my favorite books!

look myself, I've scanned a few pages once









Unfortunately, the book is not longer available. Sometimes it turns up on Amazon or Ebay. Should you find it somewhere before ..... I can only really especially picures.
