HardBack. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. First edition. James Joyces Goldenhair is the eponymous poem of this delightful anthology for children, selected by Liba Taconis and profusely illustrated in colour by the wonderful Joan KiddellMonroe. Other poets here represented are equally prestigous: Robert Graves, G.K.Chesterton, Eleanor Frajeon, Walter de la Mare, W.H.Davies, Robert Louis Stevenson, Longfellow etc. Very good clean tight sound square, no bookplate, small discreet inscription, remarkably free from foxing or browning. In original colour pictorial boards featuring satyr and fisherman, upper slightly bowed not detracting. An scarce and lovely nostalgic treat for reader and collector alike, rare to find a copy which is neither exlib or foxed, as here.
