Raggedy Ann and Andy and the Camel with the Wrinkled Knees
by Gruelle, Johnny (1880-1938)
- Used
- Hardcover
- first
unpaginated with colored frontispiece and illustrated through out. Octavo (9" x 6 1/4") bound in stiff pictorial boards. Illustrations by Johnny Gruelle. First edition. Johnny Gruelle created Raggedy Ann for his daughter, Marcella, when she brought him an old hand-made rag doll and he drew a face on it. From his bookshelf, he pulled a book of poems by James Whitcomb Riley, and combined the names of two poems, "The Raggedy Man" and "Little Orphan Annie." He said, "Why don t we call her Raggedy Ann?" Marcella died at age 13 after being vaccinated at school for smallpox without her parents' consent. Authorities blamed a heart defect, but her parents blamed the vaccination. Gruelle became an opponent of vaccination, and the Raggedy Ann doll was used as a symbol by the anti-vaccination movement. This work is the third book in the "Raggedy Ann and Andy Series." Condition: Some internal fingering, spine ends rubbed, front head corner paper rubbed off, front cover rubbed through in several places. A better than good copy.

Illustrations by John Rea Neill. Early reprint. In 1904 Altemus published the first six books of a series of fairy tale books that would prove to be an extremely popular and a very long running series. "An entirely new series of books for children, especially adapted for Christmas or birthday gifts" Altemus Catalogue 1904-1905. These books had three different formats. The first is the scarest while the third is more common. As time went on, Altemus discontinued most of its other fairy tale books to concentrate on this group of books. New books were added year and spin-off series combined into one large umbrella listing. (Later, after Henry Altemus went out of business, Platt and Munk reprinted many of the books.) This work is from the format III series. The earliest format III books (1918-21) had blank endpapers. In…

However, turning the book over and beginning from the other side, one reads "The Naughty Side" where the children are lazy and irritable. These short, moral stories teach children the proper way to behave and that there are consequences if they don't.
