Black and white illustrations by the author throughout. Joints, board edges lightly worn, front free endpaper repaired with cellophane tape. First gathering loose. Still, on the whole a good, clean copy of a fragile book. The first of the Brownie books. Cox (1840-1924), a Canadian-born artist and author, was seeking a continuing theme for his contributions to St. Nicholas Magazine and remembered characters from Scottish fairy tales he had heard as a child. The Brownie books were a tremendous success.

Sobre Michael R. Thompson, Booksellers, ABAA/ILAB
Our office is located in Los Angeles on West Third Street, between the Beverly Center and Farmer's Market. Though we gave up an open shop after more than thirty years, we welcome serious customers and dealers. We are normally open from 10 to 6 Monday through Saturday. Since some of our less expensive books are located in a temperature-controlled storage area offsite, you may want to call ahead of time to insure that the book you want to see will be available. We feature a stock strong in literature, history, Western philosophy, women's studies, education, history of science and fine printing and artists' books. We are members of the Antiquarian Booksellers Association of America and the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers. We have books from the 15th to the 20th century in all prices ranges. We do appraisals for income tax and insurance purposes. We purchase individual books and libraries. Proprietor: Carol Sandberg
