KERR, Judith: When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit. Illustrated by the author
London: Collins, 1981. 14.5 x 21.5 cm. 191pp.
Signed by the author, a poignant personal association copy.
This is a lovely, very good copy of Judith Kerr's semi-autobiographical novel. In very good condition, only slightly spotted internally as shown, but very scarce marks. In original publisher's red cloth with silver lettering at spine. Illustrated throughout in black and white line drawings by the author.
This is a presentation copy given by the author to her close friend Cary Kloetzel. Kloetzel was the daughter of a children's book author who fled Nazi Germany. The archive of the Kloetzel family (The Kloetzel Collection), kept at The Central Archives for the History of the Jewish People in Jerusalem, contains letters and postcards between Cary and Judith Kerr. A rare personal copy, signed by Judith Kerr with thanks for receiving photographs of her father from Cary.
