Description: Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NimhO'BRIEN, Robert Publisher: AtheneumLocation: New York, NYDate: 1971Binding: Octavo, original full-bound tan cloth with purple illustration to front and title to spine.Edition: FIRST EDITIONPrinting: 2nd Printing Description:First Edition, Second Printing of Robert O'Brien's classic, Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of Nimh. A very nice early example. “A story that is as engrossing as it is unusual” (Kirkus UK). A National Geographic editor who wrote novels pseudonymously to that journal’s policy against extracurricular writing, O’Brien, in this, his second novel, “successfully combines an old-fashioned talking-animal story with futuristic scientific speculation… The material is fascinating and raises many questions about what constitutes intelligence and civilization. With its interesting plot and fine blend of scientific and nature writing, this unique fantasy would surely have built a large audience eventually, but it was helped immeasurably by winning the Newbery Medal in 1972. The book continues to be extremely popular with young readers and was the basis for an animated feature, The Secret of NIMH (1982)” (Silvey, 495). With charming illustrations by Zena Bernstein. Clute & Nicholls, 885. Condition:Binding tight and square. Original full-bound cloth boards present clean and unmarked but light age-toning to edges and remnants of adhesive from tape, still tacky, to both boards near hinges extending slightly to spine. No remarkable wear to edges, hinges, corners, creases or head and foot of spine. Fore-edge and bottom text block clean and bright. Heavy spotting to top text-block. Internally clean, bright and unread. Original dust jacket presents clean and unmarked with only light age-toning, a few very faint scratches and a slight wave to front and rear panels. No remarkable wear to edges, no chipping to corners, and only a bit of creasing to head of spine. Light age-toning to edge of front inside flap. Original Price of $5.95 Not Clipped. A very nice example.
