ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

1. There are two versions of each Beatrix Potter character made by Ty. The main difference between the two versions is the color of thread used to embroider the names on the character's clothing.

2. The versions embroidered with gold thread were sold exclusively by The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction, in Cumbria, and Harrods, UK. The versions embroidered with other colors of thread were sold by regular Ty retailers in the UK. There are other minor differences between the exclusive and retail versions.

Both versions (exclusive & retail) of Jemima Puddle-duck.
