Can Rootschat members help? - Lost Teddy Bear 'Seeks' Owner

[rutti tutti]

Also coming in late... My aunt was a Dora but her name was Doris. Just to add more confusion:)

Could the Bear have been on Antiques road show it looks familiar?

Well at least we know that Glyn was born on March 4th 1918. 

I'm wondering whether the photo was taken on Glyn's  first birthday ......and he is now 1 year and 5 months old......

I think this might be the case.

They all look like that Goldy. (only joking, but that was, in it's heyday, a pretty common looking, though very lovely, bear - it looks quite distinctive now though). You'd expect someone to recognize it!

I have found 69 births for Glyn* born Wales in March 1918.  If he was born on the 4th of March his birth is likely to have been registered in the first quarter rather than the second... or so you would expect. 

Reading Liz's thoughts earlier, I think I need to go recap ...

Re the Antiques road show comment why would the bear be at an airport with it's photo ? Were the owners travelling back from a filming venue?

Im just wondering, as the picture was taken in a studio, could the bear be a prop? just as someone mentioned the tankard being maybe a prop?Im getting more confused by the minute from all your brilliant suggestions,but keep them coming as I would really love to see a happy ending to this beautiful wee story,

If that date is a first birthday wouldn't you need to look in 1917? Or am I missing something? Had a quick look on FreeBMD - there are a lot of possibilities!
