Zoom in on photos for details. You will receive the exact book shown. Appearance may vary with lights, background, or screen. As with many classic children's books of the 1950s, this book was well-read. The illustrations are superb - eye catching, indeed! The book is clean but does show wear. There are scuffs and shelf edge wear to the exterior, a name in ink on the inside cover and minor ink scribbling on page 14, old scuffs/soil to some of the pages, scuffs/soiling to page edges (noted when closed), some pages are loose from the top of the inner spine, some pages have tears/rips at top or bottom of page near inner spine. Uncertain if any pages are missing. Last page number is 200. Despite imperfections, the artwork is delightful and the poems are nostalgic. Remains functional to enjoy with many pages in beautiful vintage condition! Many artistic contributors. See a small sampling of the writers and illustrators below. Valued as a stand alone - or complete your set.
