Description: 3 Vtg HC Lot Read Me A Story Program Flip 2-Sided Books Thornton W Burgess Babar Here is a group of 3 hardcover children's "Read Me A Story Program" 2-sided books. Two published by Random House, one by Grosset & Dunlap. Printed in U.S.A. I show the original copyright dates - these editions may be 1960s printings.I have placed a ruler in some pictures for size reference. Two classic stories are bound in each book (flip around), for a total of 6 stories. Color illustrated. No dust jackets.- "Bedtime Stories" by Thornton W. Burgess, Copyright 1959, 105 pages / "The Pony Engine" Adapted by Doris Gann from Frances M. Ford's version of this famous story, Copyright 1958, 26 pages.- "Heidi" by Johanna Spyri - Adapted by Florence Hayes, illustrated by Erika Weihs, Copyright 1946, 66 pages / "The Story Of Babar the little elephant" by Jean De Brunhoff, Translated from the French by Merle S. Haas, Copyright 1960, 48 pages.- "Grimm's Fairy Tales" retold by Rose Dobbs, illustrated by Gertrude Elliott Espenscheid, Copyright 1955, 64 pages / "Babar The King" by Jean De Brunhoff, Translated from the French by Merle S. Haas, Copyright 1935, 48 pages .I have fanned through each book. Good condition with light handling wear and aging overall. The matte hardcovers have light smudges and soiling, more rubs and scuffs along the spines, edges and tips. The "Heidi" cover has some dents along the upper edge. Firm bindings although there is some pulling away from inside the cover spine, more so on the Burgess book (last picture). No names written inside. The "Bedtime Stories" book has red scribbles over the title on the front page and small red scribbles on the first letter at the beginning word of 12 of the chapters. These books have very crisp bright pages, gently handled. I noticed a few minor spots here and there overall, and there is a light brown stain across the lower edge of pages 52-53 in "Heidi", and there are small brown spots along the spine of pages 22-23 inside the "Grimm's" book. It's possible I overlooked something while fanning through. No musty or smoke odor.Please note: items will not be split for individual sale.Store inventory number 9854.
