[Rarebooks] FS: Finely Bound Johnny Gruelle LITTLE SUNNY STORIES, 1919

[Charles Agvent]

GRUELLE, Johnny. LITTLE SUNNY STORIES. Chicago: P. F. Volland Company, 
(1919). First Edition. Charming little (6" x 7-1/4") children's book 
written and illustrated by the creator of the Raggedy Ann and Raggedy 
Andy dolls. Bound in 3/4 dark green morocco leather and patterned boards 
with gilt-rules and a gilt-decorated and lettered spine, top edge gilt, 
matching patterned endpapers. The binding is signed "A. B. M.," but that 
is likely for the recipient, Alastair Bradley Martin, whose small 
leather bookplate is on the front pastedown. Martin was a Tennis Hall of 
Fame inductee, president of the United States Lawn Tennis Association, 
and a winner of the U. S. Open. He has been credited with helping to 
forge the modern era of the Grand Slam-style game. About Fine.
