MILNE, A. A. & E. H. SHEPARD (illustrator). Now We Are Six, London: Methuen, 1927. 8°, illustrations by E. H. Shepard, original crimson pictorial cloth gilt, dust-jacket (torn with slight loss to lower cover and corners, a few light stains).
Apparently a publisher's 'dummy' with many significant variations from the published version. The endpapers are plain, the ordering of the preliminary leaves differs, there is a different illustration of Christopher Robin on the title, and the order of the poems (which are printed only up to page 23, after which the pages are blank) bears no resemblance to the final version. The 'Contents' leaf concludes 'And So On' after the entry for page 19.
