Contact seller3-star sellerHardcover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. SHEPARDSON BOOKSTALL, OVER 20 YEARS OF EXCELLENCE. SIGNED BY BRUNHOFF. RARE, RARE, RARE. Very Collectible. No DJ. Book has bright yellow background with light wear on corner tips and top and bottom spine edges. When this book was released in 1949 some of the pictures of the nat…ives were thought to be RACIST so there was quite a flap about it. A controversial book due to its stereotypical portrayal of Africans. The book was then taken out of print in the 1960s, after Toni Morrison (a future Nobel Prize in Literature), an editor at Random House, protested the depiction of "savages". RACIST CONTENT. FLYER OF SIGNING EVENT INCLUDED. Signed by Illustrator(s).

304:495 mm. Signed at lower left: "Laur de Brunhoff". A charming, large-format watercolour showing Celesteville, the capital of "Le pays des Éléphants", Babar's Kingdom. The illustration was used as a double-page spread in "Babar à la fête de Célesteville" (1954) and thus bears a few pencilled marks by the printer in the blank m…argins. - The children's classic, Babar, began as a bedtime story that Cécile de Brunhoff told her young sons, Laurent and Mathieu, in 1930, when they were five and four years old, respectively. They loved the story about the little elephant so much that they asked their father, who was an artist, to draw pictures for them of the elephant world their mother had described. He did and eventually created a book, Histoire de Babar: le petit éléphant (The Story of Babar), which was published by Jardin des Modes, a family-run publishing house. Jean de Brunhoff created six more Babar books. - De Brunhoff, who holds both French and American citizenship, was made an Officier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres, and a Chevalier of the Légion d'Honneur. - Perfectly preserved.
