There is no possibility of copying, such as communication technology at wasnÂ't certainly good enough for people to both sides of the Atlantic to talk to each toy door – it seems that the teddy bear was just an idea whose time had come. For Therefore, it is preferable to trace American history and German separately.
In 1902, Germany, the Steiff toy company trying to find new products. The nephew of the owner, Richard Steiff, often visited the Stuttgart Zoo to find inspiration for new toys, and a visit was particularly taken with a polar bear. It makes little drawings of it, and had produced a prototype toys, Steiff bears, the same year.
Teddy bears made their debut in America because of widely-reported incident involving the President Theodore Roosevelt Â'Teddy 'go hunting in that same year, 1902. According to history, Mississippi officials, eager to please the president, took him bear hunting, but hunting has been a failure because there were no bears to find. One of the officials then presented the President with a baby bear that was captured and invited him to kill him, but President refused. Two toy manufacturers in New York has quickly made a nice looking baby bear toy, calling it Â'Teddy Beara's' Â-and it was a resounding success, with a huge plant built just to meet demand.
Here the two stories meet. When Steiff launched its door in 1903 at Toy Fair, buyers of American toys have realized they could import the bear and capitalize on plague bears Plush. They ordered 3,000 Steiff bears, and bears quickly became the most popular Teddies both Germany and America, and thence through distributed worldwide craze.
