"We might go in your umbrella," said Pooh...

E. H. Shepard. Original Ink on Paper Illustration of Christopher Robin and Winnie-the-Pooh. No place, no date. Signed in ink, "Ernest H. Shepard."

A similar illustration may be found on p. 141 of the first edition of Winnie-the-Pooh (with the positions of Christopher Robin and Winnie the Pooh switched).

From the Pat McInally Collection of Winnie-the-Pooh and Christopher Robin
