Illustrations found!

The first set are by William Stobbs, for Chekhov's Kashtanka published in 1959 and for which he won the Kate Greenaway medal. I think I like these the best.

The second set is by Bill Peet for his book Farewell to Shady Glade. Peet worked on a bunch of Disney films such as Dumbo, Peter Pan, Fantasia and Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs before leaving to work on his own books.

The final set are illustrations for Sergei Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf. I have no idea who did them, but it could almost be Charles Burns.
