Teddy Cooper, Lucky Mascot

Aircraft & Exhibits, 1925-1945, London, Hangar One, X002-9989

Aircrew are understandably superstitious. Many carry charms or undertake rituals in the belief that these will help protect them. This bear was the companion of Flight Sergeant Frederick Cooper and when Frederick joined the RAF the teddy also received a hand-knitted uniform.
