About this Item

The first separate printing (that is: not in a magazine or anthology ) of one of James Thurber's most noted works. Number 131 of 310 copies of this well printed keepsake, the only edition in this format, so first thus. There had already been a well-regarded animated short film of the short, short story by this time. Decoration and execution by Paul A. Lingren and Lynn Woodward. Story text on two pages. Stapled wraps binding. A color frontispiece after the 16th Century Hieronymus Bock book illustration of a unicorn in front of a date palm. Moderate corner bumps, a bit of tone to the cover. Still a pleasant, intact, and unmarked copy of this uncommon title.
