About This Item
WILLY POGANY'S BEAUTIFUL AND STRONG FULL-PAGE COLOR ILLUSTRATIONS ARE A PERFECT MATCH FOR PADRAIC COLUM'S HEROIC STORIES FROM IRELAND.
This copy is made extra special by WILLY POGANY'S SIGNATURE on the title page.
A Stated 1st Edition. Pogany's strong color and b/w illus are throughout the book, with richly drawn b/w map endpapers. At the back of the book are the author's Scholarly Notes (15 pgs). The green cloth book is in VG condition. The dust jacket is price clipped with some light soil at top edge of dj front flap. A previous owner's had put a thin short tape to hold the acetate cover to the back of the dj. Tape is gone but offset from thin tape is there at the bottom of dj's back. Dj has some edge wear at spine tips & corners, one small chip near bottom corner and neatly repaired closed tears which are not noticed on dj's front.
Overall the effect of the dust jacket is good and complete. A NICE COPY
