'The Story of a Retired Circus Horse That Lived on a Houseboat'
70+ year vintage children's book obviously used and showing plenty of signs of age and its previous existence as a Library book...nontheless, for lovers of vintage children's book artwork there's plenty to enjoy...as well as the adventures detailed in the story, artists, travel, the Golden Gate Bridge etc etc...
Check the 22 pictures carefully, they're part of the description, too, plenty uploaded showing both condition and random examples of the artwork.
Also included - whether it's connected to the book at all, I can't say - is a newsclipping dated 1971, an obituary for an Upstate New York artist, again, of children's books, shown in one of the pictures, too.
