About This Item
New York: Funk & Wagnalls Company, 1971. 187 pages. Signed by Eric Sloane with a charming original drawing of the covered bridge pictured on the front of the dust jacket. Book is a combination of Sloane's reminiscences of his youthful life and a bygone era in America, with 37 oil paintings reproduced in color. The modern world fairs poorly in his estimation. The clean, tight book is lightly edgeworn; some foxing to top of front and rear cover-cover slightly bowed out; a couple spots on fore edge. The interior is still clean, bright and sound. The clean and attractive dust jacket is price clipped; some small closed tears and 1 1/4" closed tear with fold on rear. Photos available upon serious inquiry.. SIGNED. 1st Printing. Hard Cover. Collectible-Very Good/Very Good-. Oblong 4to - over 9¾" - 12" Tall. Book.
