Literature: The Teddy Bear Encyclopedia, by Pauline Cockerill, page 193. Famous Bears & Friends, by Janet Wyman Coleman, page 26. Bearland, by Deborah Stratton, page 27. The Little Book of Celebrity Bears, Pauline Cockerill, page 9. In the Company of Bears, by Prue Theobalds. With thanks to the www.encyclopedia-titanica.org for the following information. Sig. Gaspare Antonino Pietro (Luigi) Gatti, was born in Montalto Pavese, Italy on 3 January 1875. He was one of eleven children of Paolo Gatti and Maria Nascimbene. Gatti left Italy for England when he was still young. He married a British subject and together they had a son, Vittorio. When Luigi signed on to the Titanic on the April 1912, he gave his home address as "Montalto", Harborough Road, Southampton. Luigi Gatti joined the restaurant business at an early age. In London, he ran two Ritz restaurants, the `Gatti`s Adelphi` and the `Gatti`s Strand`. On the Olympic and later the Titanic, he would run the a la carte restaurants with staff drawn from his two London restaurants. Gatti died in the sinking, his body was recovered by the Minia (No.313) and buried in Fairview Cemetery, Halifax, Nova Scotia. Effects listed by the Minia- "gold watch and chain; sovereign case; Kruger sovereign; silver match box; $6 American notes; pair cuff links marked "L. G"; diamond ring: 2 collar buttons; knife marked "Imperial Restaurant"; key; rubber eraser; lead pencil; incase, 7 sovereigns; 2 half sovereigns, 5/6d in silver; copper coins; bunch of keys with the followings tags "Comptroller`s Office restaurant 1st class entrance to "B" Deck; the other "Restaurant Manager, entrance to Cafe Parisian"; laundry, marked lined collar "HR"; two pockets kinives marked "H.R."; one pair of gloves. Sadly neither the Teddy Bear nor pipe are mentioned here, it is not known if there records are conclusive. The items included in this lot were donated by Vittorio`s widow in 1986 and exhibited at the Ribchester Museum of Childhood. They were sold along with the contents of the museum on 17th August 1995. It would appear that the bear in this lot is by Schuco and later in date than sinking of the Titanic, as Schreyer & Co. was founded in 1912 by Heinrich M?ller and Heinrich Schreyer. Prior to this M?ller worked for Bing and there is a slim possibility that a similar bear was made by them years earlier, although there are no records yet discovered to back this theory up.
