New York: Harcourt Brace and Company, 1934. Illustrated boards. Very Good. Dorothy Kunhardt. The scarce 1934 1st edition of this charming tale of a tiny --but growing-- circus dog. Beautifully told --and illustrated throughout in rich color-- by the great Dorothy Kunhardt. Solid and VG in its illustrated beige boards, with very faint staining and soiling at the panels, and very mild staining to the rear endpapers. The fragile hinges a bit delicate as well but still perctly sturdy, the book overall very solidly preserved. Lacking its rare dustjacket. Oblong quarto, joyous and wonderful. (Inventory #: 22628)
