Cleveland/New York: Collins/World, 1966. First Edition Later Printing . Hardcover. Fine/Fair. Tudor, Tasha. Lovely book of classic Christmas stories, songs, & poetry selected by artist Tasha Tudor, who added her charming watercolor illustrations to each one. In 157 pages with illustrations throughout by Tudor. Orig. published in 1966, this is a later printing (no later date, but ISBN places it in the 1970s).

Condition is Fine: completely clean, pages white, with NO foxing & just a hint of tanning. Binding is tight & square. Only flaw is mild corner bumping.
