CATTEREL RATTEREL (DOGGEREL)

First edition. Inscribed by the illustrator. Publisher's original illustrated paper covered boards with a burgundy cloth spine. Illustrated throughout by Bessie Alexander Ficklen with black line drawings. A very good copy, board edges a little worn, and the preliminary pages cracking slightly near the gutter. The contents are clean throughout and without previous owners' inscriptions or stamps. Very Scarce, especially so in presentation state.
