Published in 2003, and written especially for the centenary of Dean's by Managing Director, Neil Miller, "Dean's Rag Book Co. - The First 100 Years" traces the history of Dean's, the first teddy bears and plush toys, from the early years of the Twentieth Century right up to today. The book also has special chapters on some of the more famous characters from Dean's over the last 100 years, including the first Mickey Mouse toys and Dismal Desmond. With 192 pages, 550 photographs, and a full listing of Dean's Limited Editions over the last 16 years since the reintroduction of mohair bears, this book is the only comprehensive history of Dean's ever written, and offers a fascinating insight into the British teddy bear world from the very beginning.
