Item description from seller

A collection of 13 fairy & folk tales from cultures around the world that feature strong women heroines, in 86 pages, illustrated throughout with the black & white drawings of Angela Barrett. Orig. published in Britain in 1984, this is the First American Edition, third printing, from 1985. Small quarto (6.75" x 10") has blue paper over quarter beige cloth-covered boards, stamped with bright gilt to spine. An EX-LIB copy (with card pocket & the usual stamps & markings in front matter & external edges of text block), it is in VG- condition: quite clean, pages white & unmarked, binding straight & strong. Exterior shows heavy rubbing to upper & lower extremities (from shelf) & slight bleaching to top edges of both boards--does not impact interior! The unclipped DJ is near fine, having been protected under library mylar, which has been carefully removed (though some paper residue remains glued inside back & front boards) & replaced with new! Our photos depict the Exact book you will receive, never "stock" images of books we don't actually have here! Same Day Shipping on all orders received by 2 pm Weekdays (Pacific time); Weekends & holidays ship very next business day.…
