Description:
96 pp. Illustrations by Denslow throughout. 20.5x15.5 cm (8x6") original illustrated paper wrappers. First Edition.
According to Douglas Green and Michael Hearn in their bibliography of Denslow's work: "his account book lists sketches and a cover design for a "Farmer's Almanac" to be published by Montgomery Ward, 1899...but the almanac itself has not been seen." OCLC locates another edition, dated 1898-99, at the Huntington Library, no copies of the present edition are located. Very rare, perhaps the only copy extant.
Condition
Spine chipped at head, upper corner of front cover lacking a small piece, other light wear; paper browned; very good.
