Item 483320 ◊ 1898 "Robinson Crusoe" and Other Children's Stories, Mcloughlin Bros. Pub. Basic, but beautiful "1898 "Robinson Crusoe" and Other Children's Stories, Mcloughlin Bros. Pub."

Although the Title of this children's book is "Robinson Crusoe," it actually has several other stories and poems included: A MedleyWise Men of Gotham Dame TrotBlow Wind Blow" (a poem) Daffy Down Dilly (also a poem) The House that Jack Build (which for some reason is split between 3 pages and interspersed with other stories,) and Robinson Crusoe (a short children's version)Condition: This book was obviously well loved and well read by it's owners, who were probably children. So there are several flaws, not surprising since the book is 125 years old. The cover is still complete, although the spine is a bit rough. The edges are sound, and the corners are somewhat bumped; one corner is dog-eared in front. In back there is a bit of creasing, a bit of lose of paper on part of the edge. And it looks as though the back cover was torn, but the previous owner did an excellent job of gluing it back together, so it is very strong and the story is readable. Please see the photo which shows the back cover. Not surprisingly the covers are soiled, and some of the interior pages are as well. You can tell that some long ago child enjoy the book. In addition the staples that were used to hold the book together rusted and caused brown staining. It is complete; no missing pages, but there are a few minor creases due to use. Still lots of color and fun. All graphics are sharp & clear. Over all the book is charming inside and out, and you'd never know that it is 125 years old. In fact there is a good chance your Grandparents read this book.Please see all of the photos above and below, to confirm the contents and condition of this little book.Joyful and a very rare find, the "1898 "Robinson Crusoe" and Other Children's Stories, Mcloughlin Bros.
