PETER RABBIT AND JIMMY CHIPMUNK

Chicago, Akron and New York: Saalfield Publishing Company, (1918). A slim octavo bound in stiff tanpaper over boards with color illustration on both covers of Peter and Jimmy. Pictorial endleaves. Unpaginated. Aside from a trace of edgewear, this is a pristine copy of a fragile book..as clean and bright as the day it was published. The contents are fine as well, with no marks, tears or other faults. The book retains its original dust wrapper that repeats the cover illustration of the book on both the front and back panels. The wrapper has some light soiling and a few closed tears, the longest being 1.5 ". (Does not affect lettering or characters). For the most part, the dust wrapper is complete, fresh and unmarked. Charming illustrations by Virginia Albert in both black and white and color.
