Description:
Warwick, UK: Pomegranate, 1991. Reissue. Hardcover. Fine/fine. Fine in fine dust jacket. Reissue of 1963 publication. Hardcover. Unpaginated. 6 1/2" x 5 1/2". This mordant masterpiece charts the fate of three wholesome children whose happy days weaving chains of flowers are cut short when the mysterious Wuggly Ump hurtles from its den in search of tasty tots. The mildly unsettling cautionary tale is set to deceptively pleasant rhymes and illustrated in Gorey's inimitable style.

Description:
New York: Adama Books, 1986. Reprint. Oblong 12mo (13.5 x 15); yellow/illustrated paper-covered boards, no dustwrapper (as issued); [28pp]. Minor scuffs, bumps, and soiling; toning to front board; front pastedown and ffep indented from paper clip; Near Fine. The Wuggly Ump is a delightful creature who generally subsists on umbrellas and brass tacks, until he gets a craving for something more tender. Meanwhile, three good children spend their days nearby, weaving flower chains and eating plenty of wholesome foods. Eventually the two parties collide, and being a Gorey story, you may (or may not) be able to guess what happens next... A relatively early work from the iconic illustrator; originally published (w/ dustwrapper) by Lippincott in 1963, this is the somewhat scarce 1986 Adama Books reproduction.
