The stuffed bears were an immediate success and Michtom and his wife went on to found the Ideal Novelty and Toy Co.

Al Jolson starred as a cantor's son who instead of following in his father's footsteps as expected, becomes a singer of popular songs. Banished by his father, they reconcile on his father's deathbed.
