Description: MARY POPPINS by P(amela) L(yndon) Travers The first of seven books in the hugely popular series about the magical London nanny, first published in 1934. This book served as the basis of the 1964 Disney musical starring Julie Andrews in the title role. The copy for sale is from the first printing of the first American edition, published in New York by Reynal & Hitchcock, simultaneously with the British publication. The book lacks a dustjacket but is otherwise in pretty good shape. The covers show some toning and general handling as seen in the photos. The binding is moderately rolled but still firm; remnants of an address label on the first page; the text has scattered soiling; no tears, creases, writing, etc. In all, at least an average copy of a rare first, at an unusually low price. Hardcover, 5" X 7.5', 206 pages, illustrations by Mary Shepard. Reynal & Hitchcock did not use the words "first edition" on their copyright pages; a first like this one is indicated simply by the date and the absence of any mention of later printings. Ships promptly & securely.
