The gilt vignettes and lettering to the front board remain notably bright and unoxidised, presenting beautifully under the light. The top edge gilt retains a pleasing sheen, while the untrimmed fore and bottom edges show moderate age-toning. Internally, the pages are largely crisp and clean, free from major foxing or handling marks. As is almost universally found with this edition, the pictorial endpapers display pronounced offsetting and browning. Overall, a highly attractive, solidly bound example of this beloved classic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCatalogue Note:\u003c\/b\u003e This is a first edition, first impression of the final instalment in A. A. Milne’s Winnie-the-Pooh series, featuring the iconic black-and-white line decorations by Ernest H. Shepard. Notably, this volume marks the first literary appearance of Tigger and introduces the game of Poohsticks to the Hundred Acre Wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eWhile this trade edition is relatively common on the open market, locating copies in the original, unfaded pink cloth without severe structural wear remains a challenge. The bright, preserved gilt on this copy makes it highly desirable to collectors seeking a handsome presentation without the premium of a dust jacket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003eIn this final, enchanting volume of the Winnie-the-Pooh series, A. A. Milne brings readers back to the Hundred Acre Wood for more gentle adventures with Christopher Robin and his beloved stuffed animals. The arrival of a bouncy new friend, Tigger, brings fresh chaos and charm to the forest, while Pooh and Piglet invent the soon-to-be-legendary game of Poohsticks. Infused with Milne’s signature wit and a touch of poignant nostalgia as Christopher Robin prepares to leave for school, this timeless classic continues to capture the imaginations of readers both young and old.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Broadhursts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54332944712019,"sku":"4631","price":259.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/1469\/6787\/files\/20260714_143046.jpg?v=1784269566","url":"https:\/\/broadhurstsbooks.com\/products\/the-house-at-pooh-corner-a-a-milne-1st-edition","provider":"Broadhursts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
