Kenosha, Wisconsin: John Martin's House, 1946. First Edition First Printing . Hardcover. Good/No Jacket. Page, Helen. The beloved Pooh characters were given a new look here by children's book illustrator/paper doll artist Helen Page, whose soft watercolor drawings here are alternatively charming & fresh/weird & somewhat creepy.

A FIRST EDITION, first printing with these pictures (First, thus) from 1946, this hardcover small 4to has brightly decorated paper over boards & is in Good condition: downgraded because paper covering spine is completely missing, so the front & back covers are a bit shaky without that stability.

Moderate rubbing to extremities, heavier to corners & in a few spots along fore edge side, with some paper loss. No DJ.
