1926 Little Jack Rabbit and Uncle Lucky, David Cory, Hardcover Book. Illustrated by H.S. Barbour. Measures about 7.5" by 5". 127 pages. Good condition. Shows a little age and use.
Step back in time with this authentic 1926 hardcover edition of "Little Jack Rabbit and Uncle Lucky." Measuring approximately 7.5 inches by 5 inches, this 127-page volume was written by the prolific children's author David Cory and published by Grosset & Dunlap. The book is part of the popular Little Jack Rabbit Books series, which followed the tall-eared hero through various moral-building adventures. This specific volume is enhanced by the classic black-and-white illustrations of H.S. Barbour, whose work perfectly captures the gentle humor of the era.
The book features a vibrant orange-red cloth binding with clear black lettering and a charming character sketch on the front cover. It is an exceptional choice for a vintage nursery bookshelf, a specialized collection of early 20th-century children's fiction, or a nostalgic gift for a rabbit lover. Despite its age, the book remains in good structural condition, though it does show signs of handling and light shelf wear that speak to its long history as a cherished storybook. It is a wonderful example of the "bedtime story" genre that helped shape American childhood during the Roaring Twenties.
This item is vintage, almost 100 years old. While it appears to be in good condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
