Rupert is the lovable bear from Nutwood. He is eight years older than Mickey Mouse, six years older than Winnie the Pooh and thirty eight years older than Paddington! He was in fact the very first really famous bear.

He first appeared in the Daily Express on November 8, 1920 and has been anthologised in Annuals since 1936. In the 1920's there was a vogue for children's cartoons in British newspapers. The Express turned to Mary Tourtel, who created the little bear - "Little Bear Lost". Still running daily, Rupert is one of the longest running children's cartoons in newspapers anywhere in the world. Mary Tourtel flung Rupert into a fairy-tale world of magic spells, ogres, flying witches, dragons and wolves in scenes of a true wonderland!

This adorable cuddly Rupert Bear is made from super soft white plush fabric and is dressed in his trademark red knitted jumper and mustard coloured checked trousers and scarf.

He is sure to delight Rupert Bear fans of all ages!
