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.
