Description:
New York: Barse & Co, 1928. Boards. Near Fine/Near Fine. Joseph C. Claghorn. The 1st 3 volumes in this wonderful 1928 "Toyland" series, which consists all told of 3 separate sets of 3 books (making up 9 separate books in the series). This 1st set (representing the 1st 3 titles in the series) consists of "The Unhappy Paper Doll", "The Policeman Cat" and "The Dollville Railroad". All 3 books are in very sharp condition and each is clean and Near Fine to Fine in crisp, VG+ to Near Fine dustjackets. Very light staining at The Dollville Railroad's rear jacket panel and one very small closed tear to The Unhappy Paper Doll's front jacket panel, otherwise all 3 books are clean as could be and present remarkably well. Uniform 64mos (miniatures), lovely color illustrations thruout by Joseph C. Claghorn. The set of 3 also includes the very uncommon original pictorial box, which shows light wear and creasing along the edges but undoubtedly accounts for the superb condition of the 3 books it houses.
