Description
C-18814
Mixed lot of five illustrated children’s books and booklets, including early readers, storybooks, and a coloring book, each featuring period lithographic or color-printed covers. Titles present include Four Footed Friends, Pets A.B.C. Book, Chuck and Connie Caught in the Corn, Mother Goose, and The Lone Ranger Coloring Book. The group spans fairy tales, animal stories, alphabet learning, and Western-themed juvenile material, reflecting popular children’s publishing trends of the early to mid-20th century. Several books show original sewn or stapled bindings, soft covers, and interior illustrations typical of mass-market children’s literature of the period. The Lone Ranger coloring book retains partially colored interior pages, indicating period use. Together, the lot presents a representative cross-section of early American children’s reading and play ephemera.
Shows general wear throughout including edge wear, creasing, spine splits, cover soiling, page toning, and handling wear consistent with age and use. Some interior pages exhibit writing or coloring. All items sold as a lot.
