Did You Know? On Feb 15, 1903, the first teddy bears went on sale in the U.S. 119 years ago, named after the nation’s President at the time, Theodore Roosevelt. During Roosevelt’s first term, a Russian immigrant named Morris Michtom put a pair of handmade animals in the window of his Brooklyn candy and toy shop, proclaiming them “Teddy’s bears.” The plush duo was apparently fashioned by Rose Michtom, Morris’ wife, using velvet and shoe-button eyes. Morris Mitchtom is said to have sent a third bear to the White House, successfully convincing the President to let the shop owners borrow his nickname for their merchandise.
