Unidad documental simple 200 - Autograph draft of The House at Pooh Corner, by A. A. Milne

Draft in A. A. Milne's hand, with his revisions, lacking the end of chapter II, corresponding to the last half-word from p. 34 and all of p. 35 of the first edition, and lacking pages in the middle of chapter VIII corresponding to pp. 130-140 of the first edition.

The MS is divided into chapters following the Dedication and "Contradiction", with the first chapter headed "The House at Pooh Corner -- And what Eeyore thought of it". The last chapter shows extensive revision, with two sheets originally clipped together to form one page three separate times, including on the last page of the book.

All chapters have titles; Milne adds his name to chapter IV: "Tiggers Can't Climb Trees by A. A. Milne" and gives chapters VI and VIII separate title pages with his name. The first page of chapters I, IV, and VIII carry Milne's name and address [13 Mallord St. Chelsea S.W.3] written in a corner, with an additional instruction [for the typist] for 3 copies of chapter VIII.
