Poohsticks

Two of E.H. Shepard's Winnie-the-Pooh illustrations are coming up for grabs in Sotheby's London auction on 10 December. The first is his original pencil sketch for Poohsticks, entitled For A Long Time They Looked At The River Beneath Them. This had been thought lost, but had been kept by Shepard's wife Norah and given to a friend. It is worth anything up to £50,000. The second is Shepard's delightful illustration Christopher Robin's Braces, estimated value £40,000 - £60,000 (CLICK).
