Dame Wiggins of Lee and Her Seven Wonderful Cats: A Humorous Tale Written Principally By a Lady of Ninety
Publisher: E. P. Dutton New York 1928. Bright orange cloth hardcover with black title and stamped cover illustration, in the scarce dustjacket. 20 pages printing on recto only, The original crude and comic woodcuts are reproduced, with additional illustrations by Kate Greenaway to illustrate some additional verses by Ruskin. (Neither quite as spontaneous and charming as the originals.) Ruskin says that he left the illustrations in B&W so that children could have the fun of coloring them. Thank goodness no child did in this copy! The books is nearly pristine, with the faintest hint of rubbing at spine ends. The jacket has roughened edges with small chips and a few short closed tears, a few faint spots, with a larger chip on the rear cover at spine fold and a longer closed tear on the rear flap fold (lightly repaired with archival mending tape). Unusual to find a jacket in any condition! COLLECTIBLE 5090 First Edition Thus Good Dust Jacket Hard Cover Near Fine Condition 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall Collectible

Author Not Indicated , Illustrated by: B&W Half-tones
A Picture Story of the Cripple Creek Trip
Publisher: Colorado. Printed wraps with green border and B&W photo of the mountainside and rail line. This booklet promotes the Cripple Creek short-line railroad and the gold mines and mining in the Cripple Creek area. There is no publisher or copyright date, but printed text indicates total values extracted as of 1914, and a pencil note in one page margin notes "nine tunnels" and is dated 1915, so the booklet dates from that period. (This is the only marking or notation in the book) There are over 80 pages of full-page photo plates of the rail line, scenery, mines and mining operations, plus several pages of text. Included are 4 fold-out panorama views. The condition is good, with some wear on cover edges, shallow creases to several cover corners, and the pencil notation (with name) in the margin of one page as previously noted. Having driven the road to Cripple Creek, I can agree that the trip is somewhat dizzying and the views as spectacular as the book declares.
