Dealer Notes
In the letter which accompanied this drawing, dated 4 December 1975 Fortnum writes,
“I have had to do another drawing of Paddington to replace one that damaged. Several try-outs will not be used, and I enclose one of these, hoping that it is sufficiently Paddingtonish for you to like it.”
