These first editions are the final two (of four) volumes of the famous series about Winnie the Pooh by A.A. Milne. In the final book “The House at pooh Corner” the figure Tigger is introduced and the work ends with the famous passage: “So they all went off together. But wherever they go, and whatever happens to them on the way, in that enchanted place on the top of the Forest a little boy and his Bear will always be playing.”

“In Winnie-the-Pooh” the banal subject of 'child and teddy-bear' is handled with a new wit and delicacy, at the same time being set in the context of the natural world in a most unusual way. It has resulted in a book which [...] has delighted grown-ups as it has children." (Hürlimann, p. 78)
