Liber Celeberrimus omnibus Fere Liberis Notus Nunc Primum de Anglico Sermone in Latinum Conversus Auctore Alexandro Lenardo. [Privately printed] Sao Paolo, Brazil 1958. 100 pages. Bound in a recent, full red morocco binding with line ornamentation in gilt and pine with raised bands, title and stamps in gilt. Name on titlepage.

* Extremely scarce. Only printed in 100 copies on very fragile paper. This makes it one of the most scarce and collectible important Poohiana. ** The first translation of Winnie the Pooh from English to Latin, made by an Hungarian doctor in Italy, later on printed by a Norwegian typographer at an Italian newspaper in Brazil. *** The zenith of nerdishness, but also the ingenious canonization of Milne's children's classic: The Latin language more than indicates Pooh's rightful position among the world's greatest works of fiction.
