Inscription
Paddington Bear
As described in Michael Bond's best-selling book, 'A Bear Called Paddington', Paddington Bear first arrived at Paddington Station in 1958.
Scenes from his first big-screen adventure, 'Paddington', were filmed here at the station in the autumn of 2013.
The seat below the plaque is in the form of a book with the Bear himself painted on one side so you can sit beside him. We wonder how many of his young admirers are aware that he started life in a book?
If the form of the seat feels familiar you have probably seen the 1995 at the British Library.
