A Fuzzy Wuzzy Book “Miss Sniff” 1945 Illustrated children’s book with faux “fur” on the animals
$144.00
A “very good” vintage full color, illustrated children’s book published by Whitman Publishing in 1945, unpaginated.
First edition.
Binding and gutters are tight, no loose, torn, or folded pages. Christmas 1946 gift inscription on front free end-paper, other wise no marks or writing. Pages are bright. The “fuzz” on the cats and dogs is mostly complete, if somewhat compressed due to age. The fuzz has created “ghosts” on the opposite facing pages.
The matching vintage dust wrapper is not clipped. Shows some edge wear with a little chipping at flap corners, and a small loss at the spine head. A few surface scuffs on the back cover, but overall, a very pleasing, much better than average dust wrapper for a children’s book of this vintage.
See accompanying images for full condition details.
Scarce title in with scarcer yet dust jacket.
Will ship promptly, carefully packaged and insured.

Dell Map back “Ride the Pink Horse” 1946 First Dell printing Murder mystery Dorothy B. Hughes Vintage paperback
Original price was: $33.00.$26.73Current price is: $26.73.
This is a "good plus" vintage paperback with the desirable "map back" design that Dell Books popularized in the Forties, published in 1946.
The binding is solid, not cracked or shook. The reason I have graded this as just "good plus" is that there is what appears to be some predation at the top of the spine. Otherwise complete and solid. Text block closes tightly, a hint of roll. Much of the glossy coating appears to have come off the covers. Original owner names penned inside front free endpaper, otherwise no writing, no torn pages. Super fun! This is one of Ms. Hughes best known of 14 crime noir novels, and it was made into a film by Robert Montgomery in 1947. Please see the images for full condition details. Will ship promptly, carefully packaged.

The Motion Picture Chums War Spectacle 1916 First edition Last book of the series Extremely scarce title Antique children’s series book
$684.00
This is a "good plus" or better antique hardcover in pictorial cloth wrapped boards with black-and-white illustrated semi-glossy frontispiece published by Grosset & Dunlap in 1916.
First edition, identified by the copyright page lists and also series books lists in the back of the book. Solid binding, no writing or marks aside from a name carefully penciled on the front free end paper. No torn, folded or loose pages. Board corners are bumped, more so on the bottoms, some minimal wear to the cloth on the corner tips, not worn through. Spine head and tail bumped, but cloth is not frayed. The cloth wrapping is a little rippled on the front board above the title, and their is a triangular section on the upper portion of the back board where it is floating from the underlying board. Lower corner of back board has what looks to be remnants of the dust jacket adhered to it. Not quite perfect, but still very pleasing copy of a rather scarce final title in this early Stratemeyer Syndicate series. See accompanying images for full condition details. Will make for a great gift for that special collector or perhaps an upgrade for your collection! Will ship promptly, carefully packaged, fully insured.

Dell “map back” mystery Agatha Christie “The Murder at the Vicarage” Vintage 1948 paperback
Original price was: $184.00.$149.04Current price is: $149.04.
This is a "very good minus" vintage paperback with a solid binding, no significant flaws to speak of, aside from a couple of brief numerical annotations in the end papers, no writing, no loose, torn or folded pages.

Still, a very pleasing copy, with that famous Dell map back dynamic artwork! This edition has begun to become rather scarce. See accompanying images for full condition details. Will ship promptly, carefully packaged to arrive safely to you!
