Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Two-tone green cloth with titles stamped in gilt. 90 pages with 6 illustrations. Matching dates (1891) to title and copyright pages, but 1897 to the publisher's catalogue at the rear. With a 30-line handwritten poem entitled "Spring" and the author's initials (JWR) to the verso of the front endpa…per and the half-title. The poem is actually an early version of "When the Green Gits Back in the Trees". The poem would be added to later editions of this work, but does not appear in this volume. This version has "In the spring" in the first line, as opposed to "In spring" in the published version. Several words in this version were changed in the published version to reflect Riley's use of dialect. For example, Riley's use of the word "swet" in line 24 of the published version is "sweat" here. This copy does list "The Flying Islands of the Night" in the author's box. The publisher's catalogue has 21 pages, with the final entry for publications of the Indiana Historical Society. Riley's volumes are listed to "Armazindy" (1894). CONDITION: The cloth is lightly worn at the extremities, with a 1/4" scuff at the heel. The paper has mild toning, and the half-title is detached and laid in. It has two small chips which do not affect any of the lettering or writing. This page carries the last third of the handwritten poem and the author's initials. Former owner's name to the front endpaper; two small clippings affixed to the last page of the text. Otherwise a clean, tight copy. The half-title being detached is the probable result of handling the poem. Quite possibly a unique copy. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. R. B. Gruelle (illustrator).

Contact seller5-star sellerEarly printing of the eighth book in Johnny Gruelle's beloved Raggedy Ann series. Octavo, original pictorial paper-covered boards with black cloth backstrip, illustrated by the author in color. Lengthily signed by the author on the front pastedown, "With a wish that all your wishes may be 'Magical Wishes' Johnny Gruelle, March 1…937." In very good condition. Uncommon signed and with such a lengthy inscription. Johnny Gruelle was an American illustrator, cartoonist, and storyteller who created Raggedy Ann, one of the most enduring characters in all of American children's literature. According to the cherished family account, Gruelle found an old handmade rag doll in his mother's attic, gave it a face and the name Raggedy Ann, and presented it to his young daughter Marcella, whose early death lent the gentle character a lasting poignancy. First introduced in Raggedy Ann Stories in 1918 and joined by Raggedy Andy in 1920, the rag-doll siblings became an American icon, and Gruelle continued their adventures in a long series of tales. Raggedy Ann's Magical Wishes, first published in 1928, follows Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy on a whimsical journey full of wishes granted and kindness rewarded. Gruelle's tender, whimsically illustrated stories, peopled with invented creatures and animated by a spirit of kindness, have remained beloved for more than a century.
