Book
Hardcover. Condition: Good. "Fly-Away Wonder Tales" is actually one long fantasy story with numerous chapters. This edition was given a new title, but is a reprint of an earlier book ("The Magical Man of Mirth", issued in 1910 by George W. Jacobs) The story is by Elbridge H. Sabin. The beautiful, color illustrations, which raise the book from the ordinary to a higher realm, are by Elenore Plaisted Abbott and Helen Alden Knipe. The wonderful complexity of the pictures creates a magic beyond the rather pedestrian adventure laid out in the text. There are certainly marvelous things for the little heroine to behold, and a mighty task to complete, but the seven color pictures are rare illumination. The book is well-worn from considerable use, but complete and intact and quite serviceable. (Please read our full condition report given below) ************************************** One might say that this is a First Edition Thus, because not only was the title changed, but the book's binding is different and the publisher is different (Albert Whitman & Company); but, really the only thing that changed as goes the story itself was the title . everything else is just as it was in the original 1910 edition. Nothing was added. It is the 1920 First Printing of the Whitman Edition. ************************************** Little Dollie and her snippy talking slate (Miss Martha) are whisked away on the back of a giant owl seeking the troubled City of Mirth. It will be Dollie's task to free the city from an evil magician. Along the way Dollie meets numerous talking animals (a lobster, a whale, a polar bear, magical red fish, etc.) and fairies and mermaids. She has wonderful adventures under the ocean . no problems with breathing - but after all it is a Fairy Tale! All of this contributes to colorful illustrations, which, including the stunning frontispiece, are seven in number. The horridness of the evil magician is only hinted at in one of the pictures. The mermaid, on the other hand - or fin!) is quite beautiful. Is Dollie successful in her quest before her mother awakens her from an afternoon nap? ************************************* TITLE : Fly-Away Wonder Tales (Previously published in 1910 as "The Magical Man of Mirth") / AUTHOR : Elbridge H.
