New York:: Grosset & Dunlap, 1922.. Reprint Edition.. Hardbound . BINDING/CONDITION: blue cloth with vignette of two running collies; top edge tint is a dark shade; owner's name stamp on the front endpaper, otherwise a Very Good book, with a Good dust jacket.. small 8vo (7.75 inches tall) . Illustrated endpapers. Description: The Grosset and Dunlap reprints of Terhune's dog stories were issued in two different formats. The earlier issue was done in cloth with the head of a collie blind stamped on the front cover. The endpapers for that series featured two dogs on the left hand page with a stream or road separating them from a single 'windswept' collie on the right hand side. This listing is for a copy from the later issue which featured dust jacket art by noted wildlife artist Bob Kuhn. The binding was either solid color cloth or 'tweed' with a vignette of two collies running. The endpaper scene shows those same two collies on the left hand, and the right hand side shows a single collie leaping into a pond. One of Kuhn's paintings -- divided in half -- yielded two different dust jackets and was used (in black and white) in its entirely for the endpaper art for all in the series. Note that the only printed date is the 1922 copyright; this circa 1970s. ''Heroic and valiant, Lad proves again that he is a valuable and trustworthy member of his family as he demonstrates his supreme love for his owners.'' This is the fifth book in the Sunnybank series.
