Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Bianco's first illustrated book; her illustrations apparently moved de la Mare to compose these poems. About the nicest copy we could expect to see in original dustracket, which has expectedly imparted the faintest of toning to the edges of the white covers. Little evidence of use or readership at all; internals unblemished. The brown paper, illustrated dustjacket is a tad soiled at top edge where it shows little creasing at the front top edge and some very shallow chips top edge rear panel and a narrow strip of loss head of spine. This book ends with the poem Sephina on page 43 with a small drawing at the end of the poem.

FIRST EDITIONS, each with a full-page colour-printed illustration and a monochrome tailpiece by the respective artists, all but the Eliot with a title-page design also, each pp. [4], crown 8vo, original sewn wrappers of different colours, all in their original printed envelopes, these with some very light soiling and some very gentle fading, a couple with small tears to flaps, the booklets fine. The publisher's revival of its festive poetry series drew from a roster of poets and illustrators no less impressive than the first; Eliot, Campbell and de la Mare appear in both, as do David Jones and Edward Bawden.
