This listing is for the vintage book Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer:- 1939 printing!
- Softcover
- By Robert L. May
- Illustrated by Denver Gillen
- Written for Montgomery Ward (as a holiday giveaway)
- RARE version
- 1st print with Santa's sleigh barely missing a "tri-motored plane" - it was changed in later versions.
- Condition: cover does have wear on the surfaces, corners, edges; area in upper right hand corner where it appears a sticker of some sort was and that was taken off; no name inside; no writing noticed when quickly flipping through the pages; pages in nice to good vintage condition - only blemish noticed is that on the bottom of some pages there are evenly spaced perforations (see photo with finger pointing to these) - other pages do not have these - perhaps a defect in the original paper?
- Illustrations still vibrant!
- As with vintage books, paper darkening/yellowing due to age
- Please see all photos and let me know if you have any questions.
