Chiswick Book Dealer To Sell Rare Disney First Edition

Foster's Snow White book is expected to make five figure sum

A Chiswick book dealer's rare first edition Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs book, published in 1937 and valued at £28,500, is likely to prove a star attraction at a top antiques fair.

Chiswick book dealer Paul Foster will bring it for exhibit at the forthcoming Antiques for Everyone Winter Fair - the UK’s largest vetted antiques & interiors fair outside London.

The rare Snow White book has a number of highly sought after collectable features which include being a first edition, a scarce original dust jacket and a high number of original signatures - with Walt Disney and 51 of the 64 original illustrators who worked on the Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs film, all signing the book.

As well as the rare Snow White book, Foster Books will also have an original illustrated cell of Bashful from the Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs film, valued at £3,750, on exhibit at the Winter Fair, which take places on December 1 -4.
