Browsing Through My Favourite Book Sellers Page,

I came across this little gem,


a signed first edition of The Rescue of Piglet, also titled The Rescue of Piglet/Piglet and the flood,

published in  London by The Evening News, size: 8" by 6.5",

it is an extremely scarce, truly unique work as it is signed by A.A Milne and Ernest H Shepard, this work comprises mounted press-cuttings from the Evening News of 'The Rescue of Piglet',

for some reason the book has a third title, 'The Rescue of Piglet, A New Story for Children by A.A. Milne',

although undated, it is believed this publication pre-dates the first printing of Milne's anthology, c1925, and now the good news, it is on special offer, the normal price was £15,000.00, but for a limited time, yours for £12,000.00, for more details have a look here, what a great Christmas present for the kids!
