About This Item

New York: Blue Ribbon Books, ( 1932 ). First Edition. Hardcover. Good plus. Thick octavo, 96 pages, pictorial boards & paper, joint splits repaired with archival tape; minor repairs to several; the Blue Fairy pop-up has losses to the "grass"; Pinocchio and Gepetto are missing from the whale's mouth/belly.

This is one of the earliest of pop-up books by Blue Ribbon Books, which is credited with inventing the term "pop-up". Harold Lentz was the paper engineer who contributed black-and-white drawings, and the four brilliantly colored pop-ups: Pinocchio in school with a schoolbook; the Bliue Fairy outside Pinocchio's house; Pinocchio as a donkey performing at the circus; Pinocchio and Gepetto in the belly of the whale.

About Thomas J. Joyce And Company

Joyce And Company has been in business as a professional rare bookseller and appraiser since 1975. Owner Thomas Joyce was the regular book appraiser on Home & Garden TV\'s \"The Appraisal Fair\\\" program, on international broadcasts. Thomas Joyce was the co-discoverer of George Washington's personal copy of William Leybourn's 1679 edition of THE COMPLEAT SURVEYOR, from which young Washington learned some of his surveying skills at age 16. The book had vanished for nearly a century until its re-discovery in 2017. It is now back at Mt. Vernon.
