Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Rex Whistler (illustrator). 1st Edition. DJ in Mylar but dulled from age, some very minor foxing title page, but end plates clean Aberconway and Whistler were friends and when the author first wrote the book, the illustrator finished sketches along with him but the author did not decide to publish until "after the war (WWII". Sadly, Whistler had only completed converting three of the sketches to color plates for the story. Those three along with his original sketches illustrate the story beautifully. A real find and a great children's book. Unpaginated but has approximately 20 pages.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Rex Whistler (illustrator). Rex Whistler was a regular visitor to the young authors home where he challenged her to invent a story which he would illustrate with quick pencil sketches as she unfolded it verbatim. A year later in the early period of WW2 he suggested that he would like to make larger coloured drawings from the sketches so the story could be published after the war. He only finished three dying in action in 1944.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Rex Whistler (illustrator). 1st Edition. 4to. Bound in grey cloth boards with a red cloth spine. Inscribed by author in ink 'For Villiers wishing (?) a very happy Christmas and New year from Christabel and Mr. Korah. December 1955 '. Ex libris plate of C.H.L.Bledisloe on blank endpaper on verso of front board. Not paginated. [42pp]. an introduction by the authoress how the book came in to being over tea. Rex Whistler was never able to finish the colour drawings that he had sketched out as he was killed in July of 1944 in the war. Therefore only three of the illustrations are large tipped in colour plates after his watercolours, the other fourteen illustrations are in black and white line, reproducing the sketches that Rex Whistler had made before his death. The boards are heavily worn and slightly grubby. Inside the endpapers are foxed, otherwise very clean. Size 25 x 19cm (10 x 7.5inches)Christabel, Lady Aberconway was born Christabel Mary Melville Macnaghten to a distinguished Irish family, in 1890. Christabel Macnaghten already had illustrious friends in literary and artistic circles. In 1910, she married Henry Duncan McLaren who eventually inherited the title Lord Aberconway in 1934 upon his father s death. As become her station, Christabel McLaren cultivated the friendships of writers and artists. Her relationships with several of them, especially Osbert Sitwell, Samuel Courtauld, and H. G. Wells, turned out to be lifelong, with deep and genuine affection. She was an art collector and knew many artists and authors. Who Villiers can be-we can only guess. But could it possibly be Marie-José Villiers, Lady Villiers born in Sussex in 1916, who was a British-born Belgian countess and who worked as a British spy during World War II.? They moved in the same circle of friends and were not too dissimilar in age. In 1988, she too published a book Granny was a Spy , an account of her wartime exploits. A mystery!. Signed by Author(s).

Cloth. Zustand: Near Fine. Rex Whistler (illustrator). First edition. A smart first edition of this charming tale from Aberconway, with colour illustrations. First edition. Illustrated with tipped in colour frontispiece, two tipped in colour plates, and many full-page and in-text images. Collated complete. The author and her family loved when Rex Whistler would come to visit, as each time he would tell a story which he would illustrate with lightning sketches as he spoke. One day, Christabel Aberconway accused Whistler of thinking out his plots beforehand, to which he replied with a suggestion: the next time he came to visit, she would tell the story. Then was born a story they both loved so much that Whistler drew further coloured sketches of his original pieces. After the war, and shortly after Whistler's death, Aberconway arranged to publish the work to delight a larger audience. Written by Christabel Aberconway, a British writer and art collector. Illustrated by Rex Whistler, a British artist known for his murals and society portraits. In the original quarter red cloth binding with green cloth boards. Original unclipped dust wrapper is very smart with light shelf wear and the odd small mark to the board. Minor sunning to the spine. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright and clean throughout. Near Fine. book.
