I am selling some original Pauline Baynes illustrations. Pauline was well known for her J.R.R Tolkien and C.S Lewis illustrations but she also illustrated many other books including this one- Country Tales by Beatrix Potter. Published by F.Warne and Co in 1987 the book contained three stories: Little Mouse; Daisy and Double & Habbitrot. The illustrations for one of the stories are for sale here. Daisy and Double (Page 22-37)8 original colour illustrations - recounts the adventures of two mischievous twin lambs All of the picture are 90 x 110mm, no damage. None are signed but all include Pauline's narrative in pencil under each one. I have had them mounted/framed in and oak frame and using museum glass. The fine detail and colours are absolutely stunning and the pictures really don't do them justice but if anyone wants any more photos please let me know. So overall a lovely collection of original illustrations by one of the best illustrators in recent times. For the Baynes/Tolkien/Lewis or Potter fan these are a real treasure. I will include a few copies of the book as well For the purpose of postage I will remove from the frame, divide the mount and post between thick card to avoid breakage unless anyone wishes to collect of course. Don’t really want to spilt the set but if you are interested I now have them listed individually as well.
