Christopher Robin and Winnie the Pooh

The Fine Books & Manuscripts auctions department at Bonhams & Butterfields is organizing an auction with rare Christopher Robin related material, such as correspondence letters and black and white photographs between A. A. Milne (author of Winnie the Pooh series), his wife, and his son Christopher Robin.

These photographs give an idea of the kind of inspiration A.A. Milne had when creating Winnie the Pooh and the world around Christopher Robin, a very precious part of children’s literary history. This article highlights the items to be auctioned from the Milne family archive

The auction will take place on October 19, 2009
