About This Item
This book was designed by David Saylor. The original artwork was designed from Ludwig Bemelman's original pencil sketches, and from these, his grandson John Marciano re-created the characters in full-color gouache for "Madeline in America". His grandson also created new original artwork for the title pages, the jacket and the spine area of the binding. There is a stamp of a previous owner on the inside front cover. Other than that, the book is in pristine condition.

About The Periscope Collection
The Periscope Collection is an online store physically located in Nashville, TN. The Collection has grown out of my love of all things book-related, and after 30+ years of home schooling. We specialize in old and rare children's books, especially authors such as Tasha Tudor, Robert Lawson, and Marguerite de Angeli. We also focus on early American history, with a particular interest in the Landmark Biographies, the "Book House" series and "The Book of Life." One of our greatest passions is children's historical fiction, from authors like Wilma Pitchford Hays and William O. Steele (a native Tennessean!) and Lois Lenski, from my home state of Connecticut. And for those of you who have a heart for homeschooling, we have collected many books that Charlotte Mason would have called "Living Books": books that reflect the personality of the writer and, unlike a textbook, are not full of what she referred to as "twaddle". Along with Living Books, we also have a selection of Homeschooling helps, from some of homeschooling's wisest veterans. Come browse our Collection and see what you can discover!
And for all my loyal customers: shipping fees have recently been cut in half!
