No previous owner names. Binding tight. Grosset & Dunlap did not print explicit edition statements for most Famous Horse Stories volumes. The copyright page carries the 1950 copyright for this compilation, followed by the magazine-story copyrights from Appleton, Curtis, and Crowell. Absence of later G&D reprint codes, combined with the gray textured cloth and maroon horseshoe emblem, is consistent with the earliest G&D printing issued ca. 1950. (G&D later shifted to differently colored cloths and dust jackets.) Thus this copy is Grosset & Dunlap First Edition / First Printing of the G&D issue, not the first appearance of the stories, but the first collected edition under this title. This plain cloth Grosset & Dunlap binding appears to be one of the publisher's jacketless issues, produced for the budget/library market.
