Hello Nairalanders, i was discussing with my wife on the need to get a teddy bear for our little boy then it came to my mind when in the late 80's while growing up, there was this picture of a little boy crying with torn clothes on and with fire burning at the background. The story went that whenever and wherever the pictures falls down and break the area catches fire (It was even on network news). People had to throw their's away. We even begged our dad to do same but he refused. Funny enough i do not know how the picture disaapeared from the house. Can anyone recall having such a picture while growing up.
