Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Ling: Grandson of Yen-Foh (1936) is a richly illustrated children's story adapted from Chinese sources by Ethel J. Eldridge, with evocative artwork by Kurt Wiese. Issued as part of the Junior Press Books series by Albert Whitman, the book reflects early 20t--century American interpretations of Chinese folklore, presented through expressive linework and softly colored lithographic illustrations. This copy is an early printing, likely first or near-first, as no later printings are indicated, consistent with Whitman's publishing practices of the period. The volume features original pictorial boards with an applied (onlaid) cover illustration panel set within a printed black border, along with an orange cloth spine - an early production style later simplified in reprints. The copyright page additionally states 'Lithographed in the USA,' further supporting period printing methods. The book remains in Very Good condition, with wear at the spine ends and corners (including fraying and bumping), but a sound binding. Interior pages are clean and bright with light, even toning; illustrations remain vivid. Published by Albert Whitman & Company, Chicago, under the Junior Press Books imprint, this title represents a desirable example of prewar juvenile publishing. No dust jacket is present. Early Whitman titles illustrated by Kurt Wiese - later famed for The Story About Ping - are increasingly collected for both their artwork and historical significance. Ethel J. Eldridge was an American author known for adapting international folk tales for young readers, often introducing Western audiences to stories drawn from Asian traditions. Kurt Wiese (1887-1974), a German-American illustrator, became one of the most respected children's book artists of the 20th century, later illustrating classics such as The Story About Ping and Young Fu of the Upper Yangtze, and is noted for his expressive, character-driven style.
