Harper & Brothers. Very Good+ with no dust jacket. 1930. 5th Edition. Hardcover. Pink cloth boards lightly rubbed, faded with loss at tips, spine just slightly slanted. Tightly bound, decorated endpapers. Early printing of this 1931 Newbery Honor book with twelve full page plates plus two-page color map of island. With elements of racial stereotypes, this title tells the story of a dollhouse and its inhabitants lost at sea who eventually end up on an island. "Dinah the Cook was jointed, but her head wouldn't turn. She was made of wood, painted black, with big whites to her eyes, and a red mouth as round as a berry." Dinah is also envious of Mrs. Doll's yellow hair, but in due course she admits that "I'm ashamed of wearing Mrs. Doll's wig. I always wanted to, but I haven't really enjoyed it. It just makes me feel blacker." ; MCF04431; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 265 pp .

Description:
New York: Harper & Brothers, 1930. Reprinted September 1949 . Hardcover. Very Good/Fair. The interior of the book is clean and tight. A former owner has written her name and address on the free front end paper, but there are no other marks, and just a few indications of previous use. The 13 black and white plates, and double-page coloured map are present. The black covers are also in very good condition, with no soiling and only minor wear showing at tips and corners. The red spine lettering is undamaged. The dust jacket, however, is only in Fair condition. It is corner clipped, and has three large nicks of paper missing on the front panel/spine. The attached scan should give a better idea of condition. The jacket is now in a protective mylar cover.
