Description
[n.p., England], 1917. Very good internally but vellum heavily soiled and toned, boards bowed, contents clean with some light finger-soiling.. Attractive manuscript children's book filled with watercolor illustrations.A whimsical story in verse about a carefree itinerant fellow and his dog set in the early twentieth century wandering the towns of southern England before finding and then losing untold riches in Canterbury - and learning that time and leisure are more valuable than money.This book appears to be unpublished as we trace no printed version of any variation of this title by this author or illustrators.Oblong 4to. 7 leaves. Clearly a work of love as it is bound in full vellum with gilt lettering and marbled endpapers.
