Description
New York: Grosset & Dunlap, 1931. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Salg, Bert. The complete Tuffy Bean series, with all four jackets featuring Bert Salg's illustrations. Narrated by Tuffy Bean himself, the series follows the humorous adventures of the little dog and his friends. As in his 'Jerry Todd' series, Edwards included a section printing and responding to letters at the end of each book, establishing a friendly intimacy with his readers (a practice cited as an inspiration by Stan Lee). "When I was four weeks old I swallowed a bumblebee with a yellow rumble seat. Suffering cats! I never knew till then that bees carried pitchforks. What that busy little honey hound did to my insides was plenty for little Tuffy. My ma said then, sort of disgusted-like, as she pulled a burr out of her tail, that I was the dumbest pup she ever raised. And my pa, who was kind of proud of me for having the nerve to snap at the bumblebee, said I was the toughest. At that time we ere living with a farmer named Mr. Bean. So now you know why everybody calls me Tuffy Bean." The first three books are in the first format identified in Mattson and Davis, with plain red binding, the titles in gold outlined in black, white endpapers. The final book is in the second format, with a fish in a top hat on the front cover, pictorial endpapers in read and white, top edge blue. The jackets, now in protective covers, show minor wear to the corners and the heads and tails of the spines, with some loss to the tails of volumes 1 and 2. Some yellowing of endpapers and title pages, otherwise the interiors are clean, bright and unmarked. See photos. MAD# 60000. 7.75 x 5.25
