Description

This is a charming wooden house with a set of MY Book House Children’s Books. Many of these houses were produced for the Chicago Century of Progress exhibition of 1933-34 as promotional items. People could buy a set books with the Travelships and take them home in a house!
The Book House for Children, with six washed green volumes with gilt top edge and cover plates with raised simulated brush strokes, along with the three Travelships, in tan wooden house with red roof.
CONDITION: Well loved Book House books and very nice Travelships in a beautiful wooden Book House. MY BOOK HOUSE BOOKS: The cover plates have rubbed on all volumes. Volume One, has
lightly soiled pages and, as usual, is looser than the others. Book Three is missing the first few fly pages and has a child’s writing on the first couple of pages of the first story.
All of the volumes show moderate to severe wear. TRAVELSHIPS are clean, with just a stamp on the inside cover reading “From Your Friend Darien Book and Plan , Inc.” As you can see there is scuffing to the paint at the edges of the wooden house.
Nothing affects the structural soundness of the toy, which is heavy and solid.
The house is 22” tall, 14” wide and 13” deep.
