About This Item
Toronto, Ontario, Canada: Groundwood Books/House of Anansi Press, 2006. Facsimile Reprint . Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Atwood, Margaret. Defying warnings that it was "too expensive to publish a children's book in Canada" when this book was conceived, the author both wrote & illustrated it herself AND hand-lettered the type, using only different variations & shades of two basic colors to achieve unique results. Unpaginated. Orig. published in Canada in 1978, this is a facsimile reprint (second printing) from 2006 by Groundwood Books.Hardcover quarto has colorful paper over boards with a design matched on the DJ. Both are in Fine condition: as bright & clean & crisp as Brand New except for an old address label partially removed inside front cover. Else, completely clean, binding straight & strong; pages white; NO writing or underlining or highlighting or coloring; not ex-lib.The unclipped DJ is equally flawless, with no wear or fading.
