What Our Customers Say...
Description
Colour Plates, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce
A very scarce number of 'Bookano Stories', this being Number 3.
Illustrated with a colour frontispiece, six striking colourful pop-ups, and in-text illustrations throughout.
Collated, complete.
A charming mid-twentieth-century collection of tales for children, including 'Money for the King', 'The Jealous Gnomes', 'Making Friends', 'The Old Cab', and more.
Edited by S. Louis Giraud.
The Bookano Stories began publication towards the end of the 1920s, and were the first 'automatic' books.
Undated, dated from Jisc, from a copy held at the University of Nottingham Libraries.
Condition
In the original publisher's paper covered boards. Externally, generally smart. Light rubbing and bumping to the spine and extremities, resulting in a small amount of loss. A few small marks to the boards and spine. Gift inscription and stamp to the recto of the front endpaper. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and generally clean, with a few scattered spots and handling marks. One of the stands of the first pop-up has torn and is detached. Tear to the second, third, and sixth pop-ups.
Very Good
