BARRIE Illustrated by: WHITE

PETER PAN'S ABC

WHITE ABC. (PETER PAN) PETER PAN'S A B C. NY: Hodder & Stoughton, no date, circa 1913. 7 1/2" wide x 9 1/4", cloth backed boards, pictorial paste- on, one plate with 2 creases and slight foxing on text pages else VG+. A most wonderful alphabet book starting with an abridged version of J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan (whose name curiously enough is not mentioned anywhere), after which are verses for each letter of the alphabet with text relevant to the story. Printed on heavy coated paper and illustrated by FLORA WHITE with 26 (inc. cover) especially lovely color plates somwhat reminiscent of Attwell or Anderson. Very scarce, probably due to the construction of the book few copies of this title survive in really nice condition.
