The Little Chums
New York: Thomas Nelson & Sons, Ca.1915-1922. First American edition. Hardcover. Quarto, pictorial cloth, very good, light wear and soil, with 2 single-page plates and 3 double-page plates by Edmund Blampied, with Jack Orr doing all of the black & white illustrations. Unpaginated; about 100 pp, including Mother Goose rhymes, some short stories, etc., and we should mention there is a version of Ten Little N****rs and some Golliwog material, so ... far from politically correct. Uncommon, with only 2 of the English edition located by OCLC. The plates by Blampied are charming; one single page plate (of a cat falling asleep while the mice do play) is slightly worn at the edges. Very Good. Item #H14633
