All of the books are illustrated in color and B&W by Harrison Cady. Extremely rare.. Four of the books contain a brief gift inscription (in pencil) on the title page dated Christmas 1925, and one contains the owner's name and date (December 25, 1925) in the "My Book" box on the fep, but all are otherwise unmarked. All text and illustrations are bright and clean. The stapled spines of each of the books are worn, but not separated. The box is mildly worn, but whole. VERY GOOD. .
