Paddington Bear, Paddington Station, London, UK
Paddington Bear is a favourite with children, parents and grandparents alike. The story tells of a forlorn bear, found at Paddington Station in October 1958. A note attached to the bear asked some kind person to care for him and the Brown family took him in. He can now been seen, cast perfectly from bronze at Paddington Station, complete with a note on his coat, saying please look after this bear.
