First editions, first printings. Published by J. M. Dent & Sons Ltd., London, 1945-7. These are very good copies. The first title, 'The Magic Bedknob', published on pictorial cloth, is slightly rubbed at the front and rear panels. It is beautifully illustrated by Kiddell Monroe. The rear panel is markedly clean however, without handling marks. The text blocks are markedly clean throughout, as are the internal pages which are free from previous owner's ink. The second title, 'Bedknobs & Broomsticks' is bright in the Mary Adshead dust wrapper. It has some separation at each corner with some closed tears to the edges. The illustrations remain bright. It has been price clipped, but has two original stickers to the bottom end of the front flap, '9/6' and '8/6'. There is a previous owner's inscription to the verso of the front fly. The text blocks are free from foxing. Overall, this is a very good copy. Two stories full of magic, which inspired the 1971 film by Disney. Norton's first children's title.
