By Eleanor Farjeon
Illustrated by John & Isobel Morton Sale
London: Michael Joseph, (1958).
First edition thus, first printing.
(CHERRYSTONES was originally published in 1942; THE MULBERRY BUSH was originally published in 1945; and THE STARRY FLOOR was originally published in 1949).
This is the first collected omnibus edition.
Seventy-two rollicking fun poems and narrative verses by Farjeon, for children to sing, chant, use for game instruction, and for story-time are accompanied by seventy-two whimsically delightful illustrations by the Sales.
A charming and lovely book production.
Faint shadow of offsetting to the front end-paper, else fine in auburn linen with gilt embossed titles to the spine; in a very good plus, lightly soiled dust jacket, mildly crimped to the upper spine edge, and with a minor tan stain to the lower spine end; original 18s net price still intact to the front inner flap.
A delightful and collectible gift item!
