(Vita, aged 18, with the bear) on p. 85 of <EM>Portrait of a Marriage -
Illustrated Edition</EM>, London: George Weidenfeld & Nicolson Limited,

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>
<DIV>Dear Woolfians,<BR><BR></DIV>A friend of mine has been searching for the
photograph of Vita Sackville-West with her bear Ivan (the terrible),
potentially taken at Knole. The bear is mentioned in the footnotes of some
editions of <I>Orlando</I>, and in Juliet Nicolson's <I>The Perfect
Summer</I>, but I've not been able to locate an actual picture of the bear and
was wondering if anyone might have any leads or just more information about
this. <BR><BR>Many thanks and kind regards,<BR>Illya<BR></DIV>
