Description: Discounted! One antique children's illustrated color book and three vintage children's illustrated color books: #1 Wonderfully illustrated antique children's book from 1916! Deary Dot and The Squee. No 39 of that book series. Verses and Drawings by Nina B. Mason. Made in U.S.A. Copyright 1916 by Stecher Lith. Co., Rochester, N.Y. Story is about a young girl who journeys under the sea and meets various creatures including the Squee who she does not like. A flying fish helps her to get back to shore and into her mother's arms. The back cover is a reverse image of the front cover which is kind of clever. The binding wrap repair was done so nicely that at first I didn't even realize it was added, and the wrap appears seamlessly vintage such that it blends nicely with this antique book. I've included pictures of each page and the covers. Book is about 8 inches x 14 inches. The cover material is a hardcover/pressed board type.#2 A Good Little Kitten.
