Pages complete. The Johnstone twins were among the most successful, prolific and collectable illustrators of childrens' books. Their collaboration was loyal and lifelong. They worked with Dodie Smith, Paul Gallico and Enid Blyton among many others. This edition of the brutal, merciless, moralistic "Struwwelpeter" was one of their first commissions. Despite its tatty extremities, creasing of the contents and wear to the board covers, the illustrations are bright, vivid, fresh, animated, colourful. The pages are secure. The binding has been reinforced. All extremities of the board covers have wear. The back cover has been 'decorated' by a childish hand. The inside front cover has a previous owner inscription. The pages are sure against the binding, clean and beguiling. fk. Book Condition: Fair. Binding: Hardcover.
