Attwell, Mabel Lucie. "JUST THE THING" PAINTING BOOK (code number B352). London: Valentine & Sons, Ltd., circa 1915. First edition. Narrow folio - 6-3/8" x 13-5/8". Full color pictorial stiff card wrappers cut around the shape of a cute Attwell girl holding a painter's pallet and painting her dolly. The book has slight creasing at the top across the girls head and at the bottom across the work "JUST" in the title, otherwise, this is a very clean copy of a very difficult book to find in any condition. [16]pp. The book consists of paired pages, the first page printed in full color and the second page printed in outline only, which is then to be painted by the book's owner. The book is in wonderful unused condition with none of the illustrations painted by previous owners. The illustrations are classic early Attwell and include "Golly's Hair Cut" and a Boo-Boo in "Afternoon Tea". The back wrapper has full color pictures of a total of nine titles in either "The Attwell Painting Books" or "The Attwell Patent Dolly Books" series. The condition of the book is VERY GOOD. Rare.
