Alan Measles is the name of a teddy bear and has been made famous by the inclusion of his stylised image in the works of the turner prize-winning potter Grayson Perry. This site is dedicated to Alan Measles, who he is, and what he means to his fans.
It is rare to see a real image of the bear, but in August 2009, The Bodyguard (Grayson Perry) gave four images to us for use on Alan's site. Here he is, in all his glory.  photo provided by The BodyGaurd 14_8_9 by permission.
