EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled ""I won't sleep up-stairs, " said Teddy-G, "I want a window, I want to see" showcases the whimsical world of anthropomorphic teddy bears. Created by Floyd V. Campbell in 1906, this colorful lithograph captures the essence of adventure and curiosity. Taken from "The Roosevelt Bears - Their Travels and Adventures" written by Seymour Eaton, this image transports us into a charming children's story set in America during Theodore Roosevelt's presidency. The mischievous Teddy-G refuses to sleep upstairs without a window view, emphasizing his desire for exploration and discovery. Intriguingly anthropomorphized with human-like qualities, these adorable bears embark on an enchanting journey aboard a train. As passengers in the sleeping car adorned with curtains, they eagerly await their next destination while donning nightshirts fit for young travelers. This delightful illustration not only highlights the imaginative storytelling but also provides insight into early 20th-century transportation systems. It reminds us of the joyous adventures that can be found within the pages of children's literature. Preserved within private collections and made available through Fine Art Finder's collaboration with Bridgeman Images, this artwork continues to captivate viewers worldwide. Its vibrant colors and endearing characters serve as a reminder that even our beloved childhood toys have dreams of their own – dreams filled with wonderment and endless possibilities.
