English artist and book illustrator (1879–1976) known especially for his human-like animals in illustrations for Winnie-the-Pooh by A. A. Milne. Extremely rare original signed pencil and ballpoint sketch of Winnie the Pooh holding a jar of honey under one arm and reaching into the jar with the other on an off-white 4 x 3 card, signed underneath “Ernest H. Shepard 9/1/70.” In fine condition, with neatly trimmed upper edge, and scattered faint toning. Winnie the Pooh sketches by Shepard are quite scarce as he famously regretted illustrating the A. A. Milne books as he felt that they overshadowed his subsequent career.
