Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Charles Dickens / Alexandre Dumas. A Tale of Two Cities / The Three Musketeers. Adapted by Mabel Dodge Holmes, Jerome Carlin & Henry I. Christ. New York: J. J. Little & Ives Co., Inc., ca. late 1940s. Each text copyright by Globe Book Company (1941 and 1947). Octavo, half-green textured cloth ov…er patterned paper boards with gilt fleur-de-lis design; gilt-stamped spine titled "Library Edition." A classic two-in-one school-library binding issued by J. J. Little & Ives, combining two abridged high-school reading adaptations originally produced by Globe Book Company. Holmes's A Tale of Two Cities simplifies Dickens's revolutionary drama for classroom study, while Carlin & Christ's The Three Musketeers distills Dumas's swashbuckling adventure for mid-century readers. Attractive design typical of Little & Ives post-war "Library Edition" series, with repeating fleur-de-lis pattern on boards and matching endpapers. Condition: Near Fine. Bright patterned covers, light edgewear at spine ends, gilt titling clear, interior clean and unmarked, binding tight. A charming vintage school-library production and an appealing decorative shelf copy. Charles Dickens (1812-1870) was England's foremost Victorian novelist, author of Great Expectations and Oliver Twist, whose serialized fiction combined moral insight with dramatic realism. Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870), the French master of adventure fiction, created The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo, novels celebrated for their enduring characters, wit, and romantic bravado. J. J. Little & Ives, long a respected New York printer and bindery, partnered with Globe Book Company in the 1940s-50s to reissue abridged school classics in sturdy, decorative bindings. These "Library Edition" issues reused Globe's copyrighted educational adaptations but were rebound in elegant patterned paper and gilt-stamped spines, often featuring fleur-de-lis or marbled motifs with matching endpapers. Produced for schools, small libraries, and home reference collections, they embody the post-war trend of combining scholastic utility with bookshelf appeal.
