About this Item

Rarest of the rare--a complete set of the Patty books all in original dust wrappers and all published by Dodd, Mead & Company (The original publisher). Each book about 5 1/2 by 7 1/2 inches. Each bound in bright blue cloth with dark blue lettering and with a circular color pictorial head and shoulders portrait of Patty on the front cover. Books are publisher dated on the title page as follows: eight in 1927; one in 1926; eight in 1924. Eight books have a frontis illustration on glossy paper--remainder of books with no illustrations. All have a previous owner inscription at the front dated in 1927 or 1928. Some lucky young girl got these as a set over a two year period from a loving aunt. It is difficult enough to find any of the Dodd, Mead editions in decent shape with a dust wrapper but to find the complete set in matching covers and wrappers is almost unheard of. Books with light wear--all are clean and bright. Wrappers with the occasional small chip or tear, many with only slight signs of wear. An incredible set--I know I will never see another.
