The vendor was given these bear by an elderly lady called Miss. F.A. Blake who liked to call herself 'FAB darling'. She had two sweethearts during the first world war. One was a soldier and the other was a sailor. They asked her to keep these two soft toys safe until they returned. Unfortunately, neither of them did. They were both killed in the war.
