An exceptionally fine copy.I\'ve been collecting antique children\'s books for over 30 years now. My interest is/waspredominately in the 1910-1940 period.Particularly, the Golden Age illustrators. I collected mostly books that have fairies or humanized animals... Fantasy land...I have sold some of my collection, and am now listing some new titles.Pricing is so random now days. I am just trying torecoup some of my investment, but prices have dropped.I have researched the marketplace and come up with what I see as fair pricing.If you\"d like to email me and ask about a certain book, please do so. If you have a certain title that may fit this genre and time period, feel free to ask.
