This is a sweet little vintage 1960s hardback book. It was published by Blackie & Co. This is a first edition, as released in this separate issue in 1966.
It is in good vintage condition. Nice and clean with no inscriptions or scribbles inside.
I love the dust jacket. There are a total of four colour illustrations inside and a number of headers and endpieces in black and white throughout.
The book was written by Amabel William-Ellis (1894 - 1984) and she was an early member of the Bloomsbury Group. She was married to Clough Williams-Ellis, the architect who designed the Portmeirion village in Wales - and mother of Susan William-Ellis, designer of Portmeirion Ceramics.
The book has over 140 pages. The illustrations were by William Stobbs
I have taken lots of images for your inspection. I also have another volume of tales in my store. Postage for the pair would be the same as for one volume.
It would be sent with Royal Mail Tracked and this would be applied at the check out.
An interesting volume for you if you collect Portmeirion related items.
