Very Hard-to-Find “Building an Airship at Silver Fox Farm” by Jame Otis.  Illustrated with Eight Fabulous Black & White   Dramatic Scenes by Charles G. Copeland (Popular Illustrator of Children’s Books such as Black Beauty, Pinocchio, etc).

 

Published by Thomas Y. Crowell - First Edition, 1912

 

This rather scarce Book is in good condition.  Pages are generally clean though there is a bit of foxing around the Title Page and Page Edges show some soiling. 

 

There are also a few pages at the very back with some snagging (see photos).  Binding is tight though it has started to break open at the front endpapers which also has some paper strips adhered to it.

 

The colorful Brown, Black and Yellow Decorated Boards view nicely with relatively minor wear.  There is some light generalized soiling to the Light green Cloth Boards, but they still view nicely and the cloth shows minor wear.
