A propos de cet article

SHEPARDSON BOOKSTALL, 20 YEARS OF EXCELLENCE. A REAL GEM. RARE FIRST PRINTING OF MARY POPPINS. Book measures 6 1/2 x 8 inches. Beautiful dense color illustrations throughout (SEE SCANS). No DJ as issued. I get a kick out of this book: A little boy finds a compass and Mary Poppins takes him on a journey throught N, S, E, and W. At South they run into a South sea island native couple who offer them watermelon. Watermelon!? This would be thought of as very RACIST today, and that's what makes it special. An "A" on bottom of last page indicates a first printing.
