Abstract
-
en_US
Here is a better copy, with dust-jacket, of the 1952 original of Pec's work that I first came to know through the reproduction of 1983. As I mentioned of the first copy, without a dust-jacket, it features good monochrome and eight excellent full-page polychrome illustrations. The best of the monochrome illustrations are The Coach and the Fly (70) and The Deer and the Vine (109). The best of the polychrome are MSA (facing 12), TB (60), and The Fox and the Wolf (125). Others face 29, 45, 77, 93, and 108. T of C at the rear. This is one of several cases where I have two copies of a book and they seem to be part of absolutely the same run from the printers but have quite different thicknesses. This better, dust-jacketed copy is perhaps tighter and therefore thinner than the copy I had found earlier.
