Paddington turns 50 years old today.

This is one of those things that I feel are just plain timeless. He may be a childrens character, but if you research the history of him and his creator, some of the ideals and situations relate to the adult world in a simplified manner.
Just wanted to share.
I actually still have my Paddington Bear!
Do you?
