CAM [Barbara Campbell] ''The Girls'' or ''Three of Us'' or ''Tuppence and Co.'' eighteen...

CAM [Barbara Campbell]
"The Girls" or "Three of Us" or "Tuppence and Co." eighteen original watercolours, unsigned, mounted with a light crease down the centre, forming title-page and thirty-four illustrated pages for this seemingly unpublished work. Together with three framed trial watercolours of individual pages and three MSS variants of the script for the book, tied with red string. It is thought (though not definite) that the MSS are in Campbell's hand - one script has what looks to be 'By Barbara' with the Barbara heavily scored out. The illustrations form an attractive series about a playful trio of dogs who live by the beach.
In addition, there are four framed and seven mounted original watercolours by CAM, unsigned, including illustrations from Belinda Bear, Bill Frog and Three Jolly Sailors and at least one unpublished work, Chimp and Dumpy. A gallery catalogue, which accompanied the illustrations when for sale is included.
