Leslie Livingood: Paddington Bear

Overview

You might say, Leslie Livingood lives, breathes, and collects Paddington Bears. Her lifelong obsession began at age 5 after she got her first Paddington at a garage sale. Leslie began collecting the British bear and never stopped. She shows Lisa some of her favorites, which include a personalized Paddington build-a-bear, blue line sketches from the Paddington cartoon, and a Paddington poster signed by Paddington author Michael Bond just days before he passed. Joining Leslie today is her husband James who knew Leslie and Paddington were a package deal. Kate Martin, an appraiser of personal property will value Leslie’s emotional and incredible Paddington collection and try making a trade with her, but it won’t be anything Leslie ever expected.
