About This Item
Quarto 29.5x22.5 cm., original wrappers, (10) pp. Fifth printing. Illustrated with color lithographs by Vladimir Lebedev (1891-1967). Both Lebedev and Konashevich illustrated this work by Marshak; both are noteworthy in their own right. Both Lebedev and Samuil Marshak (1887-1964) collaborated in several works to reform the notion of children's books for the new Soviet readership who would rise to lead the Marxist-Leninist vision in the future. It was a very productive relationship, giving birth to many fine books. The present work was a resounding success. A highly collectible, fine copy.
