The page, inked with Aldin's personal touch, bears his home address at the top: The Kennels, Purley, near Reading, Berkshire. The date, "1921," is written in the same elegant script, adding to the historical significance of this unique piece. The illustration itself features a white rabbit, its ears perked up and eyes alert, nestled among snowdrops in a serene woodland setting. The delicate detail and sense of whimsy that Aldin is known for are on full display, transporting us back to the enchanting world of the 1920s.
