British author (1882-1956) who, despite a large body of novels, plays, and other 'adult' writings, will forever be most closely associated with his much-beloved series of Winnie-the-Pooh stories. ALS signed “A: A: Milne,” one page, 5.5 x 7.5, 13m Mallord Street letterhead, May 5, 1925. Letter to Miss Russell, in full: "If you could come here at 5:30 on Thursday, I shall be very glad to see you. I hope this is not an inconvenient time for you. You will have to explain to your cabman that Mallord Street is 'off Church Street, Chelsea'—on the north side of the King's Road—they never know. Or if you prefer a bus, 19 or 22 from Piccadilly Circus takes you to the corner of Church Street." In fine condition, with some toning to the right edge passing through the signature.
