Vintage Gabrielle Designs Aunt Lucy Bear 1978

A rare vintage Gabrielle Designs Aunt Lucy Bear, dated 1978 on the original cloth label. This is a wonderfully characterful example, measuring approximately 50 cm tall, with grey plush fur, dark eyes, black nose and pink felt paw pads. She wears a checked dress, white bloomers with lace trim, black felt shoes, a shawl and a black hat with striped trim.

This bear retains the original Gabrielle Designs label and the St Luke’s First XV / Peruvian Reserves tag. The hat is a replacement but with the original band. The right foot pad has been replaced, and there are no coins or coin pocket in the bloomers.

A scarce and highly displayable Aunt Lucy Bear, ideal for collectors of Gabrielle Designs, Paddington and Aunt Lucy bears, British character toys and vintage soft toys.
