Every 2 stanzas are pictured in full color on opposing pages with whimsical drawings from water colors. 18 color plates, plus color title page and color copyright page, all text and illustrations printed on heavy stock. A fabulous production, quite rare.. First Edition. Pictorial Cover. Good/No Jacket. Illus. by B. Cory Kilvert. 4to.
