Histoire de Babar Vintage Book Cover Print | Classic 1930s French Storybook Art | Star Border Nursery Print

This print reproduces the cover of Histoire de Babar, Jean de Brunhoff's beloved tale of the little elephant, first published in France in 1931. Two small travellers drift skyward in a hot air balloon marked "Au Revoir," framed by a hand-drawn border of golden stars on sage green — a scene that has charmed nurseries and bookshelves for nearly a century.

The original artwork is in the public domain, and we've reproduced it here as a clean, richly coloured print — true to the spirit of the vintage first edition, with the warmth and hand-lettered charm of the era intact.

A quietly storied addition to a nursery, playroom, or reading corner — for anyone who grew up loving Babar, or is just discovering him.
