Step back into the world of early 20th-century children's literature with this 1922 first edition of Bunny Boy and Grizzly Bear by Laura Rountree Smith. Published by Grosset & Dunlap, this charming volume belongs to the beloved "Bunny Cotton-Tail" series and features the iconic anthropomorphic characters that made Smith a household name in schoolrooms across America. This edition is particularly notable for its whimsical illustrations by Dorothy Dulin, who brings the unlikely friendship between the high-spirited Bunny Boy and the gentle Grizzly Bear to life with classic line art.
Measuring approximately 7.34" by 6.25", this hardcover book features a vibrant orange cloth binding with the original illustrated cover art. While the book shows authentic signs of age and use, it remains in good condition with a sturdy binding. The interior pages contain 127 pages of heartwarming stories and poems, though collectors should note some light pencil markings typical of a well-loved juvenile book. It is an ideal piece for collectors of antique children's books, Dorothy Dulin artwork, or those seeking a nostalgic nursery display item.
This item is antique, over 100 years old. While it appears to be in good condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
