About This Item
New York: The American Binder Co, 1953. First Edition, First Printing. Paperback. Very good. Octavo. 6 x 8 in. Unpaginated. Fully illustrated with black & white reproductions of photographs. Very good in original pictorial wrappers, light rubbing to spine, but still a nice sharp copy. Inscribed by Constance Bannister, American author and famous baby photographer. "Smuggled from behind the Iron Curtain at enormous risk of life and limb, the photographs in this book represent the ceaseless perilous struggle of the Bannister babies in the cause of freedom everywhere. Hailed by the leaders of the free nations all over the world, The Bannister Babies had only this to say. 'Glug, glug!'
