This is the unique original Watercolour painting by Bert Felstead.

The Teddy and Cuddly characters were so popular that this episode was published in 1967 in Playhour, reprinted in 1976 and again in 1980.

Teddy and Cuddly are two baby bears with the curiosity of all youngsters. Living in unspoilt woodlands, the little cubs have plenty of scope for unsupervised adventures, although Mrs Bear is never too far away (and often keen to join in the fun).

The two baby brothers have a natural affinity with the other animals in the woods and always try their best to help whenever they see a problem.
  • Artist Biography
    Herbert Felstead (Active 1940s - 1970s; UK)
    Herbert Felstead was a British artist known for illustrating nursery comics in comics such as Playhour and Jack and Jill.

    Prior to his work as a comic artist, during the mid 1940s he was a director at the Gaumont-British Picture Corporation. Using the signature Fel, he then became an illustrator for several titles published by Juvenile Productions Ltd. in the first half of the 1950s. He first appeared in the Jack & Jill comic book in 1956, taking over 'Teddy & Cuddly' from Hugh McNeill. One of his best known features in the long-running 'Leo the Friendly Lion', that began in Playhour in 1961. Another popular feature Felstead worked on was 'Fliptail the Otter' in Jack and Jill from 1967.

    He also filled in on several other strips ('Wink & Blink, the Playful Puppies' and 'Pam's Supermarket' in Playhour, 'Moony from the Moon' and 'Pinky & Perky' in Harold Hare's Own Paper), and his work was reprinted in magazines like Bonnie and annuals up until the 1980s. In the mid-1970s he became the artist of 'Little Joe', a strip created by Ian Gammidge, in the Daily Mirror.
