About This Item
Westminster, London: Bancroft & Co. 1962. (Card covers) [unpaginated]. Very good plus. Printed by ARTIA in Prague, Czechoslovakia. Dos-à-dos printing of these two titles. Illustrated card covers, linen spine. Covers show light wear; small 1" split in linen spine at middle of front gutter, faint remants of pen (previous owner's name?) at same spot; edges lightly bumped. Internally, all pop-up illustrations work splendidly; bright and clean. Illustrated by Czech artist and architect Vojtech Kubasta. Although he is uncredited, his signature is easily discernable in the illustrations on both covers. Kubasta's "Sleeping Beauty" pop-up also available, $75..
