First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. Virginia Hynson Keep (illustrator). 1st Edition. Oblong 4to. (26 cm.) unpaged (24p. on heavy black card stock illustrated with drawings and lettering on every page simulating hand printing, all in white by Virginia Hynson Keep. Title page similarly decorated. Black end papers. Maroon cloth with gilt letters on the front cover and with a vignette in gilt on the front cover of a silhouetted child's head and with a vignette in gilt on the rear cover of a pair of child's shoes. All edges gilt. Some wear to extremities with the corners just barely rubbed through, top and bottom of spine just starting to fray, covers ever so lightly soiled, gilt bright, one leaf has the upper right corner broken off but not affecting the illustrations, free end paper starting to come loose, previous owners pencil name on front pastedown, else very good to near fine with no internal markings. No dust jacket, probably as issued. This is a very unusual Children's book with heavy black pages covered with white illustrations and printing apparently simulating a school blackboard. It includes nursery rhymes and other short pieces of poetry. I have not been able to find out much about the authors, only that Martha Ann Krag was the daughter of Florence Reynolds Krag, who lived in Chicago and may have been the founder of Martha Jane's Pantry Shelf, a specialty store selling jams and found in many large cities (per an article in Good Housekeeping, 1919). Virginia Henson Keep Clark (1878 to 1962) was an important illustrator in the Arts and Crafts Movement, a member of the New York Art League, and a student at the Chase School of Art, who also studied with Howard Pyle. Through her illustrations for Josephine Scribner Gates "Live Dolls" series of books, she is still loved and remembered by collectors of children's literature. Keep Clark started out as an illustrator, but she was most well known in her lifetime as a portraitist. This is an extremely scarce children's with OCLC showing only a few libraries holding the print version. Just a charming piece of children's literature.
