This sale is for a
large size vintage hardback FIRST EDITION entitled “Canadian Wonder Tales,” subtitled “The Two Collections: Canadian
Wonder Tales & Canadian Fairy Tales,” collected from oral
sources and introduced by Professor Cyrus
Macmillan (1878-1953) with illustrations by Elizabeth Cleaver
(1939-1985).
It was published
by The Bodley Head, of London, in and is the 1974 FIRST EDITION (stated) in
this collected and illustrated form (originally published as two books: Canadian
Wonder Tales 1918 and Canadian Fairy Tales 1922 with different
illustrations).
The book measures 10
inches x 6.3 inches and has 276 pages.
The book is in
good, neat condition for its age, with minor wear to the still pretty good original
dust-jacket (not price-clipped), a previous owner’s address stamp and (old) second-hand
price details at the front and no other ink or pencil markings in the
book. The binding is good with no loose
or missing pages.
A wonderful,
illustrated vintage FIRST EDITION.

Unwinsbooks have held down shipping prices
from 2013-2020 in spite of small increases in postage costs. However, Royal Mail Prices dramatically
changed on 1 July 2020, as a result of exceptional cost increases outside of their
control, so we are reluctantly having to pass on pricing increases for parcels being
sent overseas (primarily USA, New Zealand, Australia and the Rest of the World).
These costs are a direct result of:
“Royal Mail, always aim to deliver the best
value international services. We fully recognise that these changes are
significant. This was a decision we reluctantly took but is necessary in view
of the increased costs borne by Royal Mail.”
If the Royal Mail reduce their charges in
the future (in particular what they term “Temporary Air Carrier Supplement Pricing”)
unwinsbooks will reduce the international costs accordingly.
Unwinsbooks always
obtain a proof of postage receipt from the Royal Mail. Packages over Royal Mail size rules may be
sent by courier (customer will be informed).
Goods will be WELL PACKAGED by Unwins Books
and dispatched once payment has cleared.
