Notes
A paper-mache figure of Beatrix Potter's Peter Rabbit character, for placement in boostores or department stores for advertising.
Stored with object (previously affixed with tape to the underside) is a Brentano's bookstore business card with inscription: "This is not perfect, but it is a kind of treasure, as only three were brought to this country by Warne, and this is the only one the publisher has been willing to sell, therefore it is a pleasure to gift it for you" -- Teresa Torney.
Identity of Teresa Torney, and the validity of her statement, is unknown.
