London: Methuen & Co. Ltd, , 1924-28. Here is Edward Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump... First editions, first impressions, of these timeless classics of children's literature. When We Were Very Young is in the second state of the first impression with the page number "ix" present, as usual, in the preliminaries. After the huge success of When We Were Very Young, published in 1924, Milne was asked to contribute a story to the London Evening News. "The Wrong Sort of Bees", published on Christmas Eve 1925, was based on a bedtime story that Milne had told his son Christopher. It starred Christopher's teddy bear, bought at Harrods for Christopher's first birthday, known initially as Edward or Edward Bear and later renamed Winnie-the-Pooh (after a favourite bear cub at London zoo). Winnie-the-Pooh (1926) was an immediate success and garnered even more enthusiastic reviews than its predecessor. Now We Are Six followed in 1927 and took just two months to eclipse the sales records of the… Leer más

London: Methuen, 1928. Overall near fine in very good to near-fine jackets.. A beautiful collection of first editions of the Pooh Books, all in original dust jackets. In 1933 Compton Mackenzie described the publication of the first Pooh Book, WHEN WE WERE VERY YOUNG as marking "an epoch as positively as any children's book has ever marked one. It is not extravagant to surmise that a distant posterity may find in that volume of children's verse a key with which to unlock the present more easily than with any contemporary novel, poem, or play" (quoted in Thwaite). The series is an evocative reflection of English childhood in the 1920s, yet transcends the time and place of its making for each new generation to discover and fall for. 4 volumes, 7.5'' x 5'' each. Blue, green, red and pink cloths. In original color printed dust jackets. Top edges gilt. WHEN WE WERE VERY YOUNG has page ix, not the very rare first state.
