Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. (Alphabet) Baby's A.B.C. (Code No. 80); illustrated by David Brett (pseudonym of Eugenie Richards). London: Dean's Rag Book Co., Ltd., between 1908-1913. FIRST EDITION. 4to - 11-1/2" x 7-3/4". Pink cloth backed color pictorial limp cloth wrappers, sewn as issued, with minor spotting… to the back wrapper for what is a nice copy of the book. [18] butterfly-folded double cloth pages including wrappers; pinking to head and foot of book. The book is an alphabet/object book in which each letter of the alphabet is paired with an object that starts with that letter, e.g., "A stands for Anchor. B stands for Ball. C stand for Circus," etc.; the letter "N" stands for a racist word that is difficult to see in print, but that was evidently so common place at the turn of the 20th century, that it was deemed acceptable to be included in children's books; internal pages with foxing and stains throughout. The condition of the book is VERY GOOD. Only one copy located on WorldCat (Princeton University Library). RARE. Brett, David (pseudonym of Eugenie Richards (illustrator).

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 16 pages inc covers ABC booklet oblong octavo shape with illustrated covers and pretty period 1930's children depicted in the rhymes for the alphabet description. States "Linen Finish" and the pages and covers feel slighly textured so would probably wipe clean? The covers are a litt…le creased and the staples are rusted, but the contents are all very good, one staple has come away from the covers leaving them a little loose. Good+ to VG. No date c1940's. *This would have been a cheap book when published and copies WILL be scarce despite its fairly recent history.
