About This Item
A little foxing, age-soiling, a loose hinge, one loose page. The last 16 pages are of Henry Altemus Company catalogue advertising.
The author's name is actually Moore, misprinted in earlier editions. This format was part of the Altemus Series 58 "Boys and Girls Classics" (No. 91), printed between 1899 and 1906. This edition is among the early ones of the series, published in 1901, based on the presence of Sea Kings and the absence of Vic in the publisher's advertising section in the back of the book.
Vic, the life of a fox terrier told in his own "words," quickly became a classic upon publication, and is still read today; early editions are hard to find.
