About This Item
New York, New York: Harry N. Abrams, Inc., 1979. First English Language Edition . Hardcover. Very Good. Adapted from the larger books "Gnomes" & "Secrets of the Gnomes" by the same authors/illustrators, this pop-up edition was first published in the Netherlands in1976; this is the First English-language Edition from 1979. With glossy decorative paper over boards, this hardcover 4to is in VG condition: exceptionally clean, binding strong & straight, pages creamy white, colors bright. Nearly all of the pop-ups function perfectly: the wheels spin, the table is set, the log is chopped, the animals move, the swings swing. These are the 3 FLAWS: on the With Animals page, the otter does not move along the river when the tab is pulled, 2) in Daily Routine, there seems to be a torn area to the oven, 3) in At Home, the hat on the gnome in the pop-up house is creased & bent. Else, a delightful adventure, well-preserved. Our photos depict the Exact book you will receive, never "stock" images of books we don't actually have! Same day shipping on all orders received by 2 pm Weekdays (PST); later orders, weekends & holidays ship very next business day.
