Description: POLLY PATCHWORK written and illustrated by RACHEL FIELD A story that almost reads like a folk tale, with illustrations on nearly every page - most in color, some in black and white. I find Field's art charming in its simplicity. Note: on page 23, there is a drawing of three little black boys that was deemed acceptable back in 1928, but which some might find less so in 2024. It is not horribly offensive or I would not be selling the book. I have not included a photo here, but if you are interested in buying this book and this matter is of concern to you, please contact me. This book was bought used, but is in very good condition. I take good care of my books in my smoke-free environment. Notes on condition: dust jacket: none (I do think it was probably issued with one - ?) binding: yellow cloth boards with red stamped lettering on front board and spine, with lettering on front board highly faded and spine disappeared; light to moderately soiled; slight rubbing at corners and top and bottom of spine interior pages: soiling top of page 27, with separation at gutter from preceding page; otherwise, clean, no tears Please see photos to get a sense of the condition and appealing illustrations.

Books can easily be combined and pack well together. Media mail is a very affordable rate offered by the USPS. Cost is based solely on weight and does not vary with distance. If buying multiple books, please put them in your cart and then "request total from seller". I will then send you an invoice with an adjusted shipping cost. However, I have been told that if you are ordering from a phone, it may not be possible to request such a total. If that is your situation, please go ahead and pay the shipping as billed. Then, when I process your order, I will calculate the difference between shipping paid versus actual cost, and refund you any difference. Thanks for looking!
