About This Item
New York: Henry Z. Walck, 1959. Reprint. Paper over boards. VG/POOR. Tasha Tudor. [48]pp. The first and only Walck reprint in the calico size. Light soiling to top edge. The blue of the cover has the slightest hint of green in its age - now more than 60 years old. A nice tight book in a dust jacket that is soiled, foxed and with a half inch tear at the back spine. Unusual in that this shows that Walck overprinted his name where Oxford University Press had previously been - thus dating this copy to ca. 1959 distribution.
