LITTLE TOOT Hardie Gramatky 1939 first edition - Art Deco Era Children's Book

LITTLE TOOT by Hardie Gramatky - a collectible classic children's book with gorgeous lithographed illustrations in unusually good condition. It's rare to find a classic like this with absolutely no writing and very little wear, and with the illustrations as bright and crisp as the day it was published. 1939 First Edition, Weekly Reader Children's Book Club edition. Very good condition: no writing or scribbles, no name inside, no creased or torn pages, no loose or missing pages. Binding is tight and secure. Light wear to covers. Very light spotting on title page but the rest of the text and illustrations present almost like new, very rare in a 90+ year old book. The stylized, slightly abstracted illustrations by the writer are delightful, with true Art Deco flavor. Reading Little Toot is enjoyable for all ages even after all these years. Approximately 7.75 x 7.25 inches, not paginated. Published by G P Putnam's Sons, 1939. Makes a great gift for a collector of children's books, of Art Deco illustration, or of nautical stories. Shipped quickly and securely. Questions and offers are welcome.
