About This Item
Pages are unmarked besides a small amount of ink to the front flyleaf. Some shelf-wear to the cover and gilt stamping has dulled. Spine has detached from the text block and binding is beginning to loosen. Really beautifully designed book with a lovely two-color title page and lots of lovely full-color plates of paintings by Jessie Wilcox Smith. 'Eleven Stories of Famous Child Characters in Fiction' include 'David Copperfield', 'Little Women', 'Jackanapes', 'Tiny Tim', 'Hans Brinker', 'Alice in Wonderland', 'The Little Lame Prince', 'Heidi, the Alpine Rose', 'Mowgli', 'Little Nell', and 'Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm'. 100 pp. Oversized.
