New York: Viking, 1962 Blue cloth pictorially stamped in white and red, sunning to board edges, light shelf wear; color pictorial dust jacket is worn at folds with a 1" chip from top of spine, edge tears, original price intact ($3.00) and NO award seal. One of the most popular, and important, 20th Century picture books, awarded the Caldecott medal in 1963. The Snowy Day marked a turning point in American picturebooks, being the first popular release to feature a protagonist of African descent. Along with Leo Lionni, Ezra Jack Keats helped shape the immediate future of picturebooks, popularizing the use of sparse text, collage and abstract imagery over pen & brush and representational artwork. This copy is inscribed by Keats to book designer, Jane Byers Bierhorst, who worked with Keats on later books. First editions of The Snowy Day are rare, signed or inscribed first editions are almost unheard of. See Bader pgs 379-80 and Peterson & Solt pgs 323-4. Signed by Author. First Edition. Pictorial Cloth. Near Fine/Good. Illus. by Ezra Jack Keats. Small 4to.
