Sobre este artículo
London: Frederick Warne and Co. Ltd,, (1922). The last of Potter's "little books" and rare in glassine jacket First edition, first impression. This compilation of rhymes was a sequel to Appley Dapply's Nursery Rhymes. As noted by Leslie Linder, however, "the rhymes and pictures used for this book have even earlier associations than those for Appley Dapply". There are eight rhymes including "This pig went to market" and "Three blind mice". The glassine jacket includes this title listed as "the latest volume". The endpapers including Samuel Whiskers pasting up advertising posters for "The 'Peter Rabbit' Books" (in two series) and "Other volume by the author of The 'Peter Rabbit' Books" identify this copy as a first impression. Sextodecimo. Original red boards, spine and front cover lettered in white, front cover with pictorial label, illustrated endpapers. With the publisher's glassine dust jacket. Frontispiece and 14 colour illustrations by the author. Slightly skewed and spine lightly sunned, corners bumped; a near-fine and crisp copy with top edge of glassine slightly worn. Linder, p. 430; Quinby 26.
