About This Item
Moscow: I. Knebel, 1911. First Edition. Wraps. Very Good. 4to. 30 by 23 cm. Each volume is 12 pp., including wraps (text and illustrations on inside of cover, front and back). Immensely enchanting illustrations by great Ukrainian artist. Scarce in the West. OCLC First Search reveals only two copies at Western institutions -- Oxford, and the Getty. (We assume there are copies in Russia and/or the Ukraine but these aren't picked up on OCLC.) Narrative involves a boy traveling on his hobby horse to a toy village. Condition: scattered light soiling. Name written in light ink on one cover.
