Kathleen Hale [author and artist] Orlando (The Marmalade Cat) Buys A Farm. 1st edition 1942
Wonderful bold colour illustrations on every page with the text. 32 pages, closed edge-tears to two leaves and some unobtrusive finger creasing at some edges, contents fresh. 360 x 265 mm [approx. 14 x 10 ½”] flexible thin card pictorial wraps; short edge tears to foredges and at lower spine fold, some creasing and abrasions mainly to edges, still a bright very good copy of a wartime publication. London. Country Life Limited 1st edition 1942
Dealer Notes
The illustrations are superb, Kathleen Hale drew them direct to the plate to be lithographed by W.S.Cowell. The first edition, of necessity published in less substantial format at a time of austerity and rationing.
