Sobre este artículo
Springfield, MA: Milton Bradley, 1929. 1st ed. Hardcover. Fine. Tenggren, Gustaf. Folio, full black cloth with pictorial cover printed in yellow. A scarce children's title and one of Tenggren's most important works. Distribution was probably tempered coming out, as it did, on the eve of the Great Depression in an upscale, deluxe format. Great book, bad timing.
A dozen linked fantasy tales, illustrated with six large, mounted color plates by Tenggren. 18 full page b&w drawings, plus chapter heads, title page illustration, contents page, chapter headings and tailpieces, all very much in the style of Tenggren (and his inspiration, John Bauer) by Carl Emil Wehde.
Tips gently rounded and rubbed, spine top and bottom very lightly worn, covers bright. Near fine to fine copy without previous owner's marks.
The only other work we find by Wehde is Three Little Pigs, McLoughlin Brothers, 1931. But we find him a very competent illustrator with a fine sense of design. His gnomes and creatures look so much like Tenggren's own, we'd always thought more of these illustrations WERE by Tenggren until we looked closer to find initials on each one.
