Step through the wardrobe and into literary history with this 1950 Macmillan edition of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis — the very first book in The Chronicles of Narnia series. Beautifully illustrated by Pauline Baynes, this edition features the classic artwork that brought Narnia to life for generations of readers.
Bound in striking half mustard-yellow and black boards with blue lettering, this copy includes the original dust jacket — now showing some wear and tears consistent with its age, but still wonderfully displayable. Inside pages are clean, binding solid, and overall condition very good for a 1950 printing.
A nostalgic treasure for fans of C.S. Lewis, children’s literature collectors, or anyone who still believes in magic hiding behind closed doors.
