Cowles and a List of the Pictures with Descriptive Notes on the Incidents They Illustrate Funky Christmas These books etc. come from my father-in-law's estate. We have an entire weaving and yarn shop inventory to sell that was filled to the brim. This book was found in a locked glass bookcase in my father-in-law's yarn shop. Like new; almost perfect. Front and back cover have no damage except for a spot of blue in on the front cover. Interior softcover book has 3 small red spot, like drips, on front cover. Slipcover in very good shape with some damage on spine. Minor cracking on the upper and lower foldover. Pages in book are sharp and clean. No marks or highlighting in text. Cover lies flat. All color frescoes. Some have minor smudging on the edges, but all frescoes are fine and suitable for framing. Beautifully dreamy frescoes. Illustrated, collectible, 1st edition. 28 beautiful frescos; #23 has ageing/browning at the top, which does NOT effect the fresco itself. This book came in a slipcase. This one was ruined and is stained. They only kept the front part anyway, and it will come with purchase. We'd post a picture but there is no more space.
