When We Were Very Young

MILNE, A.A.

MILNE, A.A. When We Were Very Young

Methuen, 1926.

An early edition, published two years after the first printing and in the original format. 8vo. Original blue cloth with gilt lettering and gilt vignettes to upper cover, top edge gilt. Illustrated in line by E.H. Shepard. A very good copy indeed.

This book is the first in a series of four which introduces the characters of Pooh and Christopher Robin. The bear in the poem entitled "Teddy Bear" gives us the first glimpse of the bear who has gone on to become one of the most popular children's characters of all time. Christopher Robin appears in "Vespers", "Buckingham Palace" and various other poems.
