First edition, first printing. Original illustrated boards with a brown cloth spine. Illustrated with 24 colour plates by the author. A better than very good copy, the binding square and firm, the extremities rubbed, the board corners a little bumped and worn. The contents, with some foxing to the endpapers, early pages and occasionally to the margins are otherwise clean throughout and without stamps or inscriptions. An attractive example.
The story of the rise and fall of a rather pompous dog, illustrated with Cecil Aldin's usual effortless skill and artistry.
