JC van Hunnik was born in Rotterdam in 1925 and worked at the Toonder Studios from 1948. Together with Phiny Dick, the wife of Marten Toonder, he created 'Olle Kapoen', and he contributed to the story series about Panda, Tom Poes, and Heer Bommel. In the 1950s, Van Hunnik began drawing for Mulder & Zoon in Amsterdam and illustrated many children's books.
The tasteful gouache offered here is taken from the stories of the brothers Bunny and Billy. The first volume in this classic Dutch children's book series was published in 1957. In it, the two little bears experience all kinds of funny adventures.
The text was written by Clinge Doorenbos, and the booklets are a sought-after collector's item among collectors of vintage children's books. The series was such a success that translations appeared in English, German, French, Italian, Norwegian, Swedish, and even Finnish.
The drawing has been kept in the dark for the last 60 years and still has beautifully bright colors.
