WINNIE THE POOH & THE HOUSE AT POOH CORNER

First combined edition, first printing. Publisher's original burgundy cloth with a gilt illustration to the upper board and grey and gilt titles to the spine, in the original dustwrapper. Blue top edge. Illustrated throughout with black and white line drawings by E. H. Shepard. An excellent near fine copy, the binding square, firm and bright with very light bumping to the corners and heal of the spine. The contents, with a previous owner's inscription to the flyleaf and half title, are otherwise clean throughout. Complete with the lightly rubbed, nicked and creased dustwrapper that has a short closed tear to the head of the mildly toned spine and another to the bottom edge of the rear panel. An excellent example, scarce thus.
