Captain Sandman, by Miriam Clark Potter, 1926. Rare children's book.

Description: Captain Sandman: His Book of Tales and Rhymes for Children, by Miriam Clark Potter, NY: EP Dutton, 1926. HB, 233 pgs. No DJ. Description: This book is in the genre of the Arthur Rackham Fairy Book, but for younger children. It is a collection of fantasy stories, short poems, and pen-and-ink drawings. Miriam Clark Potter (1886-1965) is the author. She was a prolific author of children's books. Amazon lists 46 books by her (some of these have 0 copies sold or for sale), Goodreads has 30 different titles of this author.. This is a full-size hardback story book. Eg. some chapter titles are "The Copper Kettle Fairy", "Little Elf's Valentine", "Three Little Wiggletales", "Squeaky Shoes and the Dragon". Original and whimsical. The drawings are by Sophia Balcom. Condition: Good Used. No DJ. There is some damage: the dedication page has 2 handwritten names added to the author's list, the table of contents has one story circled in pen, pgs 43, 45 and the last page (233) are torn (but not detached), the back cover has one dribble and 4 nicks. On the plus side, this copy is not exlib, there is no prior owner name or nameplate, binding is good, no writing except on the pages noted above, and the book does not have a worn or much-read appearance. No foxing, and all pages are clean (except those mentioned). The 3 page tears were repaired by me with clear tape, so as not to tear further: see photo 9. Price: Buy-It-Now is $29 plus $5 insured media shipping.
