Pooh is not a Disney creation! The books were written in the late 1920's. Charming stuff, very enjoyable.
I did not test the records; I don't think many people were buying children's records at the height of the Depression! 95 years later, most of them would be lost or broken.
Quite an opportunity here to obtain an early, super condition record set of Pooh in his first colorized appearance.
THIS IS A REAL AUCTION WITH NO RESERVE
$7 ground advantage mail postage with tracking and handling fee. See my other items listed for sale, and thanks for looking! [MILNE, A.A.], author; Frank LUTHER, tenor; H. [Harold] FRASER-SIMSON [music]
