 : The Ghost Story by Alfred Bestall


The Ghost Story by Alfred Bestall

A family sit in the dark by a blazing fire, rigid with fear while listening to a ghost story told by an aged relative. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to them, the sceptre of a medieval knight, looms over them with interest. Illustration by Alfred Bestall, who is best-known for drawing Rupert Bear but who contributed a number of illustrations to The Tatler during the 1930s
