Winnie the Pooh, A Pepys Game
First Published: 1965, Pepys Series by Castell Brothers Ltd., St. Cross Street, London
Illustrator or Designer: After Walt Disney Studios and E.H. Shepard
Contents: 44 Cards + Rules Booklet
There are four numbered cards: Winnie the Pooh x 4, Piglet x 4, Kanga and Roo x 4 and Christopher Robin x 2 . There are 3 each of the remaining 10 cards that also feature other characters including Eeyore, Rabbit and Owl.
In 1961 Walt Disney acquired the film rights to A.A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh books, as illustrated by E.H. Shepard. The cards show scenes from the short animated film, or featurette, "Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree" that was released in 1966, a year after the game went on sale. This was the first Winnie the Pooh film from Disney and the last short film that Walt Disney personally supervised before his death in December 1966.
