Books : Children's Fiction : Illustrated : Illustration : Petersham : Horse : Soldier

 

"Get-a-Way and Hary Janos was written by Maud and Miska Petersham and copyrighted 1933. This first edition book is one of the most desirable and (arguably the best) books illustrated by the Petershams. This is the story of an old worn-out horse and an old Hungarian toy soldier and their adventures in a far-away toyland. Illustrated with incredible full page color lithos plus full page and black and white in- text lithos. A most beautiful and enchanting book. The book is an ex-library book with the library label on the spine and a label inside. The book has paste-down illustrated covers and is in good condition. There is some soiling and scuffing on the cover as well as some wear at the edges. The inside pages are minimally yellowed and the spine is tight.

I will be happy to combine shipping on multiple orders.
