The Teddy Bear is now so much part of our lives that it's hard to believe he was only invented in 1902, and is named after Theodore 'Teddy' Roosevelt, the famous hunting President of the USA.To Roosevelt's eternal credit, he couldn't bring himself to shoot the defenceless cub, and ordered it to be set free.Brooklyn candy store owner Morris Michtom quickly worked out a pattern, and, within days, had put together a little jointed toy bear cub, which he put in his shop window and a handwritten notice saying 'Teddy's Bear'. The Bears sold like wildfire, and within a year, Michtom closed his candy store, and founded the Ideal Novelty and Toy Co. - still one of the biggest toy firms in the world over ninety years later.
