About This Item
1935. Told for Children by Russell Thorndike. London & New York: Raphael Tuck & Sons, n.d.[1930s?]. Original color pictorial wrappers.
Each of these is a pocket-sized abridgement, for children, of a Charles Dickens novel or character -- condensed into a booklet of just 16 leaves (the title page is on the inside rear cover, there are six full-page illustrations, and the final page 33 is on the inside rear cover -- so the text occupies only 27 pages). The front and rear cover have the same color illustration. A little light foxing, but all three are in fine condition. Housed together in a simple hard-board folder with typed label.
