New York: Grosset & Dunlap, 1929. hardcover. Book: Good. 8vo.. 335 pp. 5 1/2 x 8 1/4. Brown cloth covered boards, stamped in red on front and spine. Corners bumped. Gift inscription on half-title page. No dj.

No dust jacket. Nor any idea what the fabric color started out as, it's all just grimy and gritty now, like a fine grade of sandpaper. That said, the fabric doesn't show much wear and seems intact all around. The pages are clean and, for the most part, tight. There are two loose pages, one being an illustration that has been the victim of an errant pencil.
This is a novel written based on a long-running comic strip by the same author, that ran in newspapers (remember those?) from 1923 to 1945. Along with a novel, that strip spun off a movie (in 1931, starring Jackie Cooper), toys, dolls, comic books and a radio series. Among all that, this is the only novel, and this one, as bad as it looks on the outside, is a first edition. It is also rather rare.
