HUGHES, Shirley ~ THE LION AND THE UNICORN. THE BODLEY HEAD, 1998. This copy flatsigned by the author/illustrator on the title page in black ink, accompanied by an inscription. 
 
This poignant story set in WWII Britain is one of two-times Kate Greenaway Winner, Shirley Hughes, most touching illustrated books. A fine copy, like new with the original dustcover.  The inscription and signature on the title page, in black ink, is extremely rare.
