Price: US$600.00 + shipping
Condition: Very Good
Description: Dustjacket has blotches and edgewear and a closed tear to lower edge of front panel. It isn't particularly attractive - see image, but it also is covered with a clear, vinyl sleeve. Slight musty smell from storage. ; Signed by the author on the title page to Condor Rogers, noted journalist and editor at the New York Times. "These fifteen titles, published between 1953 and 1965, feature stories told in cross-hatched pictures and (mostly) rhyming couplets, generously spaced in this hardcover book. In this collection the panels of these books are rearranged to fill both sides of a much larger spread, which gives the stories a slightly different feel."

Description: The 1972 signed/limited edition, #32 OF 50 COPIES SIGNED BY EDWARD GOREY at the limitation. This edition calls for "an original ink and water colour drawing by the author", which this copy lacks. Still though, very scarce as such and a lovely copy to boot. Tight and Near Fine in its laminate boards. And in a crisp, price-intact, Near Fine dustjacket, with a tiny chip at the rear panel's top-edge and a miniscule closed tear to the front panel's lower-edge. Quarto, internally immaculate, with no writing or markings of any kind. Also includes a sturdy, VG example (light soiling to the title label and along the rear panel) of the publisher's printed slipcase, which has clearly protected the book and dustjacket very well.
