1905 The Little Colonel's Christmas Vacation by Annie Fellows Johnston / Page Company, Boston / Charming Antique Book in Very Good Condition

In very good condition here is a charming antique copy of The Little Colonel's Christmas Vacation by Annie Fellows Johnston. Published in 1905 by LC Page, Boston. With eight black and white illustrations. A heart-warming tale that captures the spirit of Christmas 

A delightful children's novel set in the early 1900s - the story follows Lloyd Sherman, affectionately known as the "Little Colonel," as she spends her Christmas vacation at Warwick Hall, a grand boarding school for girls.

The novel explores themes of friendship, adventure, and self-discovery as Lloyd interacts with her classmates and navigates school life. The boarding school setting, resembling an old castle, adds a touch of whimsy and charm to the story. Lloyd and her friends experience the excitement and challenges of school life, forming bonds and creating memories that last a lifetime.

Inside the pages are clean, bright and tightly bound with no writing or other markings of previous ownership. All eight black and white plates are present as called for. One plate has some loss across the bottom corner (see photos), otherwise all in top order. 

Light-brown cloth covered boards have red and green decoration to the front and spine. Again in very good order, with just the odd faint dark mark. The spine has some light rubbing and a couple of faint light brown marks. Looks extremely eye-catching on display.

Your antique copy of The Little Colonel's Christmas Vacation will be wrapped with care in tissue and ribbon* and sent well packaged. I am always happy to add a gift card with a message to the parcel if desired
