Item Details
Description
Wonderful large format children's book with eight stories about pirates written and illustrated by the great Howard Pyle, one of the founders of modern American Illustration. Graced with all 12 full-page color plates and 24 full-page b/w illustrations (all on coated paper and in fine condition). Howard Pyle’s Book of Pirates, compiled by Merle Johnson. Published 1930 by Harper and Brothers (K-E on © page). The richness of the stories is complemented by Pyle's unique atmospheric paintings. Pyle may never be surpassed as a teller and illustrator of pirate lore the same as Remington will probably never be topped as his counterpart of the great American West. Quarter black cloth with brown paper covered boards and pastedown illustration by Howard Pyle on cover. Gray lettering on cover and gilt lettering on spine. Rear tips peeking through; front tips just barely starting at tiny spot. 1/2" split at top spine. Cover pastedown with few light scratches to ink. Extremely minor soiling to covers. Inside exceptionally clean. 9.25 x 12.25. 247 pp.
