Description: This is a very nice lot of six (6) original vintage Wonder Books. In order of age we have: 1) The Make Believe Parade by Jan Margo. Wonder Books #520 from 1949. 2) The Brave Little Steam Shovel by Alf Evers. #555 from 1951. 3) Adventures From The Original Alice In Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. #574 from 1951. 4) Little Peter Cottontail by Thornton Burgess. #641 from 1956. 5) Nine Rabbits And Another by Miriam Clark Potter. #345 from 1957. 6) A Visit To The Hospital by Francine Chase. #690 from 1958. These were a mix of my Moms and Dads as children and in my family since. In really amazing condition for 60 to 70 year old books. Spines are straight and strong, all pages are firmly attached, there is no writing anywhere, there are no torn pages, front and rear covers have bright colors. Nine Rabbits And Another does have a 3/8" x 1/2" piece missing from the top of the rear cover (see photo 12), but the remainder have standard shelf wear for books of this age, with light scuffing and minor corner rounding. In my family for decades and now ready to entertain a new generation or join your collection! The photos are of the very book lot you are bidding on, not a "similar" item. I do not accept returns, but I will gladly provide further photos or information about these pieces until you are comfortable. If you do have any concern with a purchase from me, please contact me and lets talk. I offer good quality merchandise, and I think my Ebay rating speaks for itself. If you order multiple items I will gladly combine shipping and refund a portion of your shipping cost. Orders received between 12:00 PM on Friday and Monday morning will ship Monday. All other orders will ship within 24 hours, and I will provide a tracking number at time of shipment. I will ship to Alaska and Hawaii on request but shipping would have to be computed.
