About This Item
New York: E. P. Dutton & Co, 1933. First American edition, 8vo, pp. 288; original green cloth stamped in gilt and black; binding soiled and spine a little sunned; original printed dust jacket (supplied?) with a few minor breaks and chips at extremities, spine sunned. This copy with a warm inscription from Milne, "For Bob (?) / with my love / specially bound in green to make the owner of the English edition jealous / Blue / Christmas 1933." 'Blue' was Milne's nickname, possibly for his blue eyes, and possibly because he was inclined to dress in blue.
