Dear teddy bear artists,

One of the most eminent teddy bear contests of the world is starting again! We would like to invite

you to join the TED worldwide competition 2008  in the classes Hobbyist, Artist or Masterclass.

Be a part of the contest by sending in your latest teddy bear creation until June 30th, 2007.

The most important idea is to be nominated for the TED worldwide. To win the award comes secondary

because a nomination implies already a very effective and beneficial way of advertising for you:

Every nomination will be published in the BärReport magazine (25.000 print run) and on the

homepage www.baerreport.de (20.000 hit rate per month), so it will make you even more popular.

All nominations will be presented at the Teddybär Welt in Wiesbaden, the great teddy event in spring 2008.

We keep our fingers crossed that your teddy bear will win the TED worldwide award. Accept the challenge!

TED worldwide for the first time with

Steiff special award!!!

For the first time the Steiff special award is assigned in the course of the TED worldwide 2008:

the Margarete Steiff GmbH offers the three first laureates the possibility of incorporating their

objects to the Steiff assortment program. A four-headed jury of the Maragrete Steiff GmbH

acquires the winners of the Steiff special award. The first placing is endowed with 3000,- euros,

the second placing is endowed with 1500,- euros and the third placing with 500,- euros.

If one of these objects will get into serial production and maeketing, the winner receives a

participation of 3% in the Steiff net turnover for this product for the first year after the market lauch.

All information you find on the TED worldwide brochure enclosed.

Good luck to you and kind regards,

your BärReport team

I suggest you check the home page for the printout version for the entry form

I restrict myself, for now, to our domestic contests, but just out of curiosity...

...  Did I miss it somehow, because I can't find an English translation available for anything on this site.

I'm sure someone else will want to know!

Thanks, Lynette, for announcing.

Walter Neumann & co seem to be bombarding those of us who have entered before with any number of e-mails - like Ellen, I've had lots in the last couple of days! Strange that it isn't in english on the website, as the comp. entry form HAS to be filled out in English!

Maria, maybe write to Mr Neumann and ask him about English on the site- its a new one and the old one used to have and English section- I know that both him and Christine Spies speak very little English- maybe they are working on that !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought they would have it all on the site , maybe they just sending emails out and not so fast with the uploading info onto the site !!!!!!!!!!!
The forms always are entered in English.

Neumann and Spies never answer e-mails (well, certainly as far as my experience goes!) - as for them understanding little English - I'm not so sure.....and well - they don't rate on my list of "favourite people" shall we say....
I imagine the website will get entry forms up, after the current Ted worldwide is sorted  And  like I said, I'll grab some foms next weekend, and send them, or scans, to whoever is iinterested.

ha Maria, normally the editor of the magazine and right now my mind is a total blank and its first thing int he morning- ahahahahah what is going to happen later on in the day, answers all my questions. She might have moved around or even left , as I ahve not chatted for some time, but yes neither Walter or Christine answer mail, yet when at another show in Switzerland and we spent time together they were both very friendly and we had a good time.

here we go Karin Soltani.

Cheers.

Try www.worldlingo.com it will translate the text for you. The free version doesn't translate everything, but it does do most of the site. The application form using this is all in english. You can translate it to other languages too.
