For artists and collectors sponsored by Intercal...your mohair supplier and Johnna's Mohair Store
In the artists’ section, we ran into Jared and Jane Monroe. Jared is keeping up with TT during the show, too. Referring to an online discussion, he said that he knows people were amazed when they learned how much a Toy Fair booth costs, but he and Jane think the exposure is worth it. We’ve just learned through a TBF survey that our readers do the majority of their shopping via bear stores, so putting yourself in front of store owners makes sense to me!
- Jared showed us “Bowie” and “Chase”. He said that since “Bowie” means hunter in a nordic language, “Chase” seemed appropriate for the matching bear.
- Jane was displaying her Golden Teddy nominee, “Woodrow,” and a friend, “Americana Teddy.”
- Jane was also showing “Tucker,” a 22” cutie. If I read the tag right, “Tucker” will be arriving at Ruthie’s Tee Co. fairly soon, which is right down the street from my house....
Yay Mindy!!!! Sharing piccys of our own Jarod. Fantastic.
Lookin good Jarrod-hope you and mom are having a great time....
Thank you Mindy....you're a peach!

Mindy -
I noticed that we made a mistake. Tucker is actually Tessie, see what happens when you put tags on at 2 in the morning. Tessie is 21". Tucker was the taupe. But rest assured we fixed it.
Jared, looks like you're having a great time. The bears look terrific and mom's GT nominee is just outstanding; I love that little hat!
It's really great to see a fellow TT'er "in action" and live from New York; thanks, Mindy.
Hooray for the Monroes . . . lookin' good!!
Way to go Jared and Jane!! Wish we were there . . . :hug:
