Michael Bond - Paddington klassiekers: Een beer genaamd Paddington / Paddington op reis - 1997-1997

A unique, premium set for the serious collector: two iconic Paddington books, each personally hand-signed by the creator, Michael Bond!
This exclusive lot contains two beautiful hardback editions from the beloved series 'Paddington Classics', published by Van Reemst Uitgeverij. Both books are in rare, pristine condition.
Contents of this duo:
1. "A Bear Called Paddington" (Part 1): The legendary debut tale in which the Brown family first meets Paddington at the London station.
2. "Paddington Takes a Holiday" (Part 4): The wonderful sequel in which Paddington goes on vacation to France with his adoptive family.
Details of this set:
• 100% Authentically hand-signed in the presence of the current owner: Both books are personally signed on the French page by Michael Bond (1926–2017) with blue ink.
• No personal dedications: Both signatures are completely 'clean'. There are no specific names or personal messages (such as "To ..."). This is the most coveted and valuable form for collectors.
• Condition: Absolute mint condition. Both books are unread, tight in the binding, and entirely free of spots, creases, discolorations, or name inscriptions. They have always served purely as collectibles.
A rare opportunity to, in one go, acquire two key pieces from Paddington history in perfect condition and signed!"
