Lovers of cuddly toys packed a London auction house Friday to bid for 186 early 20th-Century teddy bears, some of which were clothed in silk gowns or top hats. The top price of $1,000 was fetched by a plush-covered bear aged about 75 with big button eyes, an embroidered string nose and a pronounced hump. He wore a smart linen smock.
