Sobre este artículo
Chicago: M.A. Donohue and Co. Hard Cover. Good/No Jacket. Jessie Wilcox Smith. No date. Reprint of the original edition issued in 1909. 56pp. Original reddish cloth with a pastedown color illustration on the front cover, depicting a girl eating with a teddy bear (Then the epicure). Verses written for children, accompanied by color illustrated plates by Jessie Wilcox Smith. All plates present as called for, although all but one are bound in a page earlier than indicated in the contents page. GOOD condition. Spine and extremities very sunned, with otherwise mostly minor uneven fading. Minor soiling. Minor scuffing to the cover pastedown. Extremities scuffed with the cloth at the head and foot of the spine frayed and worn. Small, faint dampstain present at the upper right corner of the page edges. Very minor scattered soiling to the pages, with general toning to the paper. The last illustration appears to have been reinserted as it sticks out slightly from the text block and bears a diagonal crease at its lower left corner. Minor chipping along its extremity. One other illustration starting to detach. Binding weak at the hinges. Previous owner's gift inscription on the first endpaper.

Mare Booksellers specializes in punk fanzines, with interests in underground newspapers and art. Who are we kidding? We really like anything with printed or handwritten letters, whether paper, books, etc. (Okay, letters and words aren't really that important either).
