Hardcover. Condición: As New. Great Adventure Stories Various (Authors' Collective) / Illustrated throughout Dean & Son Ltd., London, 1982 This edition published 1982. Original content © Editorial Fehr-Bilbao, MCMLXXV (1975) ISBN 0-603-00314-1 / 9780603003141 Hardcover, pictorial laminated boards, 173 pages Dimensions: approx. 20 × 27 × 1.5 cm Condition: As New A rare and beautifully preserved 1982 Dean & Son Ltd. English-language edition of this richly illustrated children's adventure anthology, originally produced by the Spanish publisher Editorial Fehr-Bilbao in 1975. The book is offered in As New condition — virtually indistinguishable from a new copy. The pictorial laminated boards are bright, clean and unmarked, with the distinctive sword emblem and dramatic full-colour cover illustration (featuring a pirate captain, young companion, sailing ship and other adventure motifs) remaining crisp and unfaded. Spine is square and tight with no lean or wear. No inscriptions, bookplates, stamps or previous ownership marks. Internally, the pages are clean, bright and free of foxing, creasing or handling marks. The decorative endpapers (pirate ship with skull-and-crossbones flag and treasure-map design) are pristine. All illustrations and text are sharp. A superior example of this title. This edition was issued by the well-known London children's publisher Dean & Son Ltd. as a reprint of the 1975 Fehr-Bilbao content. It is an attractively produced hardcover anthology aimed at readers aged approximately 9-12, featuring full-colour illustrations throughout. The contents are organised into thematic sections covering Medieval Heroes, Explorers, Pirates, The Wild West and The Fantastical. Individual stories and chapters include Knights of the Round Table, Robin Hood, Magellan and Elcano, The Conquest of the Poles, The Corsairs, Turtle Island, The Chinese Pirates, The Covered Wagons, Sitting Bull, Buffalo Bill, The Abominable Snowman and others. The illustrations are vivid, period-style adventure art typical of the mid-1970s Spanish and British children's book market, with dramatic spreads that bring the historical and legendary subjects to life. Dean & Son Ltd. (founded in the 19th century and still active in the 1980s) specialised in affordable, well-illustrated hardcovers for the juvenile market, often reissuing or adapting international material. This particular title is uncommon in commerce. While other Dean "Great Adventure Stories" volumes exist (with different covers and contents), copies of this specific 1982 edition matching the Fehr-Bilbao content, ISBN 0-603-00314-1, and distinctive cover are rarely encountered. Current online listings are extremely scarce. As such, this As New example represents a genuinely rare opportunity for collectors of vintage British children's hardcovers, illustrated adventure anthologies, or Dean & Son publications. Ideal for the discerning collector of mid-to-late 20th-century illustrated children's books, or as a fine reading copy for a young reader. The book is complete, with all pages present and correct. No dust jacket was issued.

Hardcover. Condición: Good. (no edition, nor date noted). Contains four full-page, high-contrast, striking and evocative steel-engraved plate illustrations; and seventeen vignette to half-page illustrations from steel-engravings. Phebe F. McKeen was the assistant Principal (her sister Philena was the Principal) of the women's college, Abbot Academy from 1859 through her death of tuberculosis in 1880. During the 1870s she wrote a handful of main-stream publisher books for, and about children. All of her books are uncommon, this one is quite scarce. Phebe and her sister believed in equal rights for females and African-Americans (their home had been an underground railroad for most of the 19th century) and believed in advancing equal education for women (who had 'superior qualities'). Both of these Christmas stories are well-written with superior vocabulary for children and incorporate warm family values with the religious story, themes, and meanings of Christmas. Inner hinges cracked, but still holding, rub-wear and nicks to shelf-edges, nicks and wear to corners, wear and nicks to upper and lower spine edges, else good in waxed green cloth over color illustrated boards; no dust jacket, as issued.
