FIrst British edition of this classic children’s book written by Diana Ross and with illustrations by the renowned graphic designers and poster artists Jan Lewitt and George Him. The first of the Little Red Engine stories. Oblong 8vo, hardcover with dust jacket, 32 pages, published by Faber & Faber in 1942, though undated. The Lewitt-Him design partnership began in Warsaw in 1933 but relocated to London in 1937, to escape the looming threat of Nazism, as both were Jewish. Though the partnership ended in 1955, both principals enjoyed successful and critically acclaimed careers in commercial graphic design, along with set, costume, and exhibition design, and art. Light chipping to extremities, with small closed tears to spine ends. Mild rippling to textblock. Moderate bumping and chipping to price-clipped dj, especially at spine ends. Creasing to bottom of front cover, a few closed tears throughout dj – all practically imperceptible. Scarce with dust jacket.
