KPC 035572 CARP As is. Very scarce (and funny). Some clever word play in the rhymes and the ABC and the pictures, especially a fulll page drawing of frogs swimming off quite an elaborate dock, complete with changing rooms for these quite modest frogs. Another favorite are quails, digging with shovels, in a quarry. Chromolithgraph frontispiece is more traditional but an attributed line drawings are Pictorial hard cover with red cloth spine binding, boards heavily worn and soiled, red spine is split nearly all the way down the middle. Pages are brittle and browned, the ffep is detached. All of the pages are chipped on the lower corner, a couple of pages have short closed tears and one page is loose.

Store Description

We had an open shop in the Northwest section of Philadelphia in the Chestnut Hill, Mt Airy neighborhood for 18 1/2 years. It was in a beautiful 1882 train station designed by the noted architect, Frank Furness. In August of 2014, we closed that shop but continue to sell on-line out of our home in Williamsburg, PA. We'd love to have you visit our 8,000 plus books, by appointment.
