About this Item
A fun novel about Punch and Judy and the baby and Toby. "Ascott R. Hope" was a pseudonym for Robert Hope Moncrieff, a prolific Scottish writer of books and magazine stories for children. A major attraction of the book are the twelve color plates "from drawings by Stephen Baghot de la Bere". The top edges are gilt, others untrimmed. The covers are rubbed, affecting the illustrations blocked on spine and upper cover, there's a bookplate on front endpaper, one color plate is partly loose, and there is a little browning and spotting on edges. Still a very good copy with all plates looking splendid. Seller Inventory # 002347
