Vintage glossy 3.5 x 4.75 photo of Milne resting his chin on his hand, affixed to an 8 x 10 mount, signed on the mount in blue ballpoint, “A. A. Milne.” A few creases to mount and some skipping to ink, otherwise fine condition. Accompanied by a transmittal letter from his wife, Daphne Milne, in part: “I am returning the photograph which my husband has managed to sign for you. The signature is very shaky because he is ill, and, except for his right hand, completely paralysed. I fear he will be unable to write much more, so you are fortunate in obtaining this autograph”; also accompanied by an ink signature of Christopher Robin Milne. A decidedly uncommon item. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
