The Imposter


Isn't he the most life-like looking stuffed animal you've ever seen?  I spotted him in a toy store window when I was at the mall last weekend.  The funny thing is, it made me think of my dad.  When I took my dad to London some 17 years ago, the only thing he purchased as a souvenir was a stuffed tiger.....and it was just for him!  He would have loved this guy!

It is a good thing when something like this brings back sweet memories.

OH! that is a bit too real-looking, fortunately he also seems friendly.

In fact I collect pictures of these when I see them outside. Yours is far more elegant than any of the three I have photographed till now.

I would love this guy, too! It is amazing how lifelike "they" can make these creatures these days. Did your dad ever explain his affection for this tiger?

I've always had a soft spot for these imposters & it reminds me of a lion I once owned & loved!
Good memories here!

What is the deal with the popularity of huge stuffed tigers? I've seen them here too. Always tigers. Always big.
