Lot Essay
Ringo Starr kindly lent his much loved super star panda to Colour Box as part of a new Celebrity Bears collection, to raise funds for the charity he supports.
This giant panda, known as 'Chairman of the Board', made friends with Peter at a recent modelling session and his miniature likeness No.1 has been donated especially for this sale.
Ringo Starr explains how 'Chairman of the Board' came into his possession:
"Many years ago, I believe 1976, I looked out of my office window and saw the one and only Keith Moon attired in full L.A. Police Department uniform, alighting from his white Rolls Royce and carrying this large bear - and lo and behold it was a present for me!"
