Randolph Caldecott “The Three Jovial Huntsmen” Vintage pictorial cloth-wrapped hardcover Undated early edition
$24.00
“The Three Jovial Huntsmen”, a Randolph Caldecott picture book, published by Frederick Warne & Co. Ltd., date unknown.
Vintage children’s pictorial cloth-wrapped hardcover printed in Great Britain.
A “very good” book with a solid binding and intact gutters. No loose page, no folded pages, no significantly torn pages (page 26 has a 3/4″ closed tear near the spine at bottom). The first few pages and last few pages are quite foxed (spotted – see accompanying images) but the remainder not so much. Text block edges are tanned as are the spine and boards.
The book shows some age, but it is still quite pleasant and gift worthy!
See accompanying images for full condition details.
Will ship carefully packaged and fully insured.

The binding is crisp, hinges tight. No loose, torn or folded pages, no writing. Board corners are not bumped, spine tail might be just slightly so, hard to tell.

Illustrated Children’s Western “Wyatt Earp” [c.1956] Like new!
$22.00
"Wyatt Earp" by Philip Ketchum, published circa 1956 by Whitman Publishing Company.
Octavo, glossy coated pictorial wrap around boards, green tinted text block edges around, two color chapter headings along with two color full page illustrations, seemingly one per chapter by Robert Doremus, 282 pages. This is an exceptional copy for one of these Whitman Books published at this time. I would grade it at "very good +" or better, which typically would not be that unusual, but for these books it is very much so. They were made very cheaply and were rather delicate. They did not fair well if exposed to the sun as the glossy coating would get brittle, discolor and lift. Typically also, the spines would crack and split. This book is wholly intact, the coating is complete, the spine nor hinges are not cracked, the text block closes tight and square, the tinted edges are relatively uniform in color, showing no signs of rubbing from use. There are four small surface scuffs to the edges on the bottom (see accompanying images). A hint of wear at the board corner tips and some slight chipping at the spine head and heel edges at the corners. A really, really nice example of a classic children's western published during the pinnacle of the Western in America! A wonderful time capsule. Will ship to you carefully packaged.

Marguerite 1921 Antique children’s hardcover book in paper wrapped boards, cloth wrapped spine Cloth pictorial paste down on front
$34.00
This is a "good plus" or better antique British printed hardcover, with 29 original woodcuts by Simeon, deckled outer edge, tinted upper edge on block, spine wrapped in tan cloth, boards in brown paper, front board decorated with illustrated cloth plate.
Edition/printing not noted, but if not first, early, because the prefatory letter in the front is dated April 1920 and the title page shows a print year of 1921. This antique book shows some wear, but is solid. No loose, torn, or folded pages. There is a book plate on the front free end paper, other wise no markings. The red tinting on the upper text block edge has bled down in the margins of some pages. Titling on the spine is sunned or faded. Board corners are bumped and worn through to the board. Has some mileage, but still very pleasing! See accompanying images for full condition details. Will ship promptly, carefully packaged.
