Item description from seller

Very SCARCE first edition. Book consists of 7 images on right side, with story text on left. Paper is black with turquoise blue ink. Glows in the dark. Book is complete and intact. Covers exhibit a bit of perimeter wear, scuffing, and soiling. Top of back board is creased at corner. Metal ring binding (similar to spiral) holds boards and pages securely in place. Expected wear around metal bands, particularly on the covers. Spine is split along shoulders from ends to first ring. Dirt and smudges on back board. Interior is free of writing and intentional marks. Glow is still somewhat responsive, and best seen in full dark after very bright exposure. Pages exhibit light scuffing. Book may exhibit additional minor signs of age or wear. From the cover: "Each page has a hidden picture. Read it first in the bright light. Turn out the light. You will see a new picture glowing in the dark." A TWO-IN-ONE PICTURE BOOK. This very rare and scarce book is one of the earliest examples of glow-in-the-dark printing. Denver Laredo Gillen (1914-1975) is best known for illustrating the first printing of Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer. He illustrated other children's books, text books, and wildlife for periodicals, in addition to painting landscapes. Unpaginated. 11 x 8.5 inches. Postage for oversized and international shipping will be calculated by size and weight. AbeBooks shipping quotes are ESTIMATES only. If actual shipping cost is less than the AbeBooks estimate, it is our practice to REFUND the difference to the buyer.…
