An appropriate celebration of the publishing milestone of this children s classic, first printed in 1908. While E.H. Shepard s illustrations are widely known, Rackham s distinctive take on the adventures of Mole, Ratty and Mr Toad is just as successful and utterly endearing. Seller Inventory # 107929
