Ardizzone went on to be a prolific illustrator in mid-century Britain and is most remembered for his children's book illustrations, including his own Little Tim series. This copy has two jackets, apparently due to a production error. Preserved in a removable clear archival sleeve. EJIA [Edward Jeffrey Irving Ardizzone] (Dust jacket) (illustrator).
