Beverly Gray at the World's Fair by Blank, Clair - 1935

New York: A. L. Burt, 1935. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Number 6 in the Beverly Gray series. One of the scarcest of all juvenile series books. The title went out of print shortly after publication when the series moved from Burt to Grosset & Dunlap and was not republished at the time. Sound binding with intact hinges. There is a small bookseller sticker at the foot of the front endpaper. Clean pages. Bright fresh cover with almost no wear. The original dust jacket has very light wear, tiny edge tears, some minor rubbing, a slightly sunned spine, and a clipped upper corner on the front flap. (Any distorition in the dust jacket image is due to it's protective mylar cover. The book is from the Robert and Diane Yaspan Collectio and sold for $1135 at Heritage Auction #683 in June 2008. It is an exceptional example of this elusive title.
