Thank you Ms. Jessica for the picture you shared with us celebrating Winnie the Pooh's 100th birthday!

The real Winnie-the-Pooh won't be found on a video, in a movie, on a T-shirt, or a lunchbox. Since 1987, Pooh and four of his best friends—Eeyore, Piglet, Kanga, and Tigger—have been living at The New York Public Library.

The curious name of Winnie-the-Pooh came from Christopher Robin, from a combination of the names of a real bear and a pet swan. During the 1920s, there was a black bear named Winnie in the London Zoo who had been the mascot for the Canadian Army Veterinary Corps (C.A.V.C.). Pooh was the name of a swan in Milne’s book When We Were Very Young.
Pooh was purchased at Harrods department store in London and given by A.A. Milne to his son Christopher Robin on his first birthday, August 21, 1921. He was called Edward (proper form of Teddy) Bear at the time.
The rest of the toys were received as gifts by Christopher Robin between 1920 and 1928.
Not only Christopher Robin played with the toys; so, apparently, did the family dog, which may have contributed to their well-worn appearance.
The baby kangaroo stuffed animal (named Roo) was lost in an apple orchard during the 1930s, according to Christopher Robin Milne's 1974 autobiography, The Enchanted Places.
Winnie-the-Pooh had adventures with Piglet, Eeyore, Kanga, Roo, Owl, Rabbit, and Tigger in the Hundred Aker, or Acre, Wood (based on the Ashdown Forest in southern England, located near the Milne family home).
Owl and Rabbit were brought to life to join Pooh and pals Eeyore, Piglet, Kanga, Roo, and Tigger, by Milne and illustrator Ernest H. Shepard.
The stuffed animals range in height from 25" (Eeyore, the biggest) to 4.5" (Piglet, the smallest).

A vital part of the Polonsky Exhibition of The New York Library's Treasures since 2021, Winnie-the-Pooh and his pals are as happy as when they lived in the Hundred Acre Wood.
