Rare Pooh drawings up for auction

“A pair of Winnie the Pooh drawings are expected to fetch up to £30,000 each when they go on sale at a London auction house later this month. The coloured crayon drawings by Ernest H Shepard – Tiggers Don’t Like Honey and Pooh Visiting in Owl’s Parlour – will be auctioned at Bonhams on 22 May.
