📚 Teddy Bears

20 works · ordered by editions in print

The bear that came from a president’s hunt: makers and mohair, and the collectors who never grew out of it.

Below are the 20 works carrying the subject teddy bears in the Open Library catalogue with the most editions in print. Author and first year are as the record states them; a missing year means the record does not carry one, not that the book is undated. Novels set in the subject are left out, because a list of historical fiction is not a list of history. Where one author dominates the reprint counts, no more than two of their titles appear.
