Descripción

CONDITION: Good in Good jacket; no names or other marks, straight, clean, BUT bottom corner corner of cloth board shows faded moisture damage on corner for about 1.5" in affecting title, and this shows on jacket over a larger area and on endpapers and pages as a 1/8" rim along 2" of bottom and sides, no moisture was at or near the plate or spine; otherwise jacket is faded blue as usual with darkened spine and very light wear to top edge, 0.95 price. Small hardback. When little Mary sneaks off on adventures Mother Hen cannot concentrate and lay her eggs. What a relief when Ernest Owl opens a school! Very bright clear colours, almost like pochoir. The UK Brockhampton series began in 1949 with Emily the Goat. The McKay US reprints are not in the same order. Six Blackberry Farm books were published in this format with green boards in 1954 including Mother Hen, and two sets of three titles with red boards in 1955, (dates, from library records in Worldcat , may have appeared on later printings) As of this writing, we have eleven in jacket, ask. ABE Heritage Seller since 1996; conservative AB condition grading. We ship all our books in cardboard protection. International shipping. /F. Stocks May, illustrator. N° de ref. del artículo 21021
