This book is titled The House At Pooh Corner and is a limited first edition that was signed by Milne and Ernest Shepard, the illustrator, and published in 1928. The book has blue cloth on the spine and cream-colored boards with a paper label on the front cover, blank endpapers, the half-title, a frontis drawing by Shepard, the title page with Methuen & Co. at the bottom of the page, the book was published in London, followed by the limitation page, which says the book was printed on hand-made paper in 1928, and it is number 225 of only 350 copies that were signed by the author and the illustrator. Then a Contradiction - Milne’s introduction - on pages ix and x, a list of Contents on page xi, 178 pages of text, followed by a silhouette of Christopher Robin and Pooh, the book was printed by Jarrold and Sons in Norwich, and it has the dust jacket with the title, the author’s name, a price of 42 / - Net and the publisher’s name on the spine.
The book measures 8 7/8 x 7 1/4 inches wide and is in very good condition. It is clean and tight, with a small blemish to the left of the paper label, a bruise at the bottom of the front board, light wear at the tips, light shadows along the hinges in front and back, and the dust jacket has light soiling and chips at the heel and crown of the spine, a small hole on the front cover of the jacket, small nicks or tears at the top and bottom of the dust jacket, and the flaps have light wear at the top edges, and still an attractive copy of this rare limited edition signed by Milne and Shepard.
This is A. A. Milne’s second and final novel about Winnie-The-Pooh, and you won’t get many chances to acquire this book because there are only a limited number of copies that were ever published.
Size: 7 1/4 x 9 x 1 in.
