The Golliwogg's Bicycle Club. Words by Bertha Upton
-
First edition. A nice copy of this uncommon first edition. Follow the adventures of Golliwogg and his old companions, a group of Dutch peg dolls, as they pedal their handcrafted bicycles across the globe. Their journey takes them through the streets of Paris, beneath the iron arches of the Eiffel Tower, and onward to Japan, where they discover the thrill of riding in a rickshaw. The trip continues through Turkey, across vast desert sands on camel back, until a dramatic encounter with a tribe of cannibals brings their expedition to a most unexpected halt. Original hardback boards with green cloth spine. There is a touch of darkening to the boards, and bumping to the corners, but still an attractive copy. Gift inscription in pencil to the inside front board. The title page is moderately darkened. The rest of the book is clean, with a few finger marks to some pages. There are a couple of very small closed tears to the edges (not affecting text). Lovely full page and vignette illustrations. Curiously, the copyright notice and date are printed on each full page illustration. 63 pages. 215 by 280mm (8œ by 11 inches). .
