Description: A treasure of a children's book: Leo Lionni's now classic picture story book, SWIMMY. This is the first edition and printing published by Pantheon, a division of Random House, in 1963. Note the 3/63 on the front panel as well as the information on the copyright page. Beautiful illustrations that capture life under the sea, coupled with a telling story that still has importance today. The book is still in its original $3.50 dust jacket. The jacket is good with some repaired tears, all closed with document tape. Spine panel is somewhat toned with a very small loss at its base. The matching pictorial boards are very good as is the interior. No previous owners' names. No water damage. No musty odors. Intact hinges with a still sound binding. Overall, it's a very good copy of this classic Sixties children's book. Size is approximately 9 by 11 inches. The pages are not numbered. Ask any questions you may have before you bid. I'd be happy to help. Shipping is a flat $5.75 via USPS Media Mail. Carefully wrapped and boxed. I value the things I sell. Finally, if you have the time, you may want to check out my other listings of rare to interesting things. Thank you.
