Made from The Finest High Quality Blonde Mohair For This Stunning Charater.

Michael Bond based Paddington Bear on a lonely Teddy bear he noticed on a shelf in a London store on Christmas Eve 1956, which he bought as a present for his wife. The bear inspired Bond to write a story; A Bear Called Paddington - first published on 13th October 1958. Little could he have known then how many people around the world woudl come to know, love and adore his small bear from darkest Peru. To celebrate the marmalade-loving BAFT nominated bear's 60th anniversary Steiff were honoured and thrilled to offer a design which paid homage to Peggy Fortnum, the first illustrator to draw Paddington Bear for Michael Bond's children's books.
