R. John Wright's "The Lonely Doll Collection" Featured By Bearly A Memory

Lonely Doll Collection

Since it was first published in 1957, The Lonely Doll® has established itself as a unique children's classic. Through innovative photography, author Dare Wright brought the world of a doll
named "Edith" and two teddy bears named "Mr. Bear" and "Little Bear", vividly to life.
The toys Dare chose as characters were classics from the world of children's playthings:
a Series 109 Italian Lenci doll from her childhood, and German Shucco and Steiff brand teddy bears. With simple poses and wonderful expression, the atmospheric black & white photographs
told an unforgettable story of friendship.
The book was widely read throughout the 1960's and is now being enjoyed
by its third generation of readers.
