Golden Tales from the Arabian Nights: The Most Famous Stories from the Great Classic A Thousand and One Nights

Notes: Illustrated with reproductions of color paintings by Tenggren, a Swedish-American artist who remains best-known for his work on the Walt Disney movie Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. One of the less-common Tenggren books in the first edition (it was reissued in 2003).

A Giant Golden Book, 10-1/4 by 13 inches; 96 pages.

Edition + Condition: First edition (code A 395395 on the front pastedown). A very good copy in laminated decorated paper-covered boards. The top of the spine is just beginning to crack, with loss of about one inch of the lamination at the top of the spine, and an early price sticker on the front pastedown. This copy has a previous owner's name on the blank opposite the title page; Tenggram signed the book below the name. Very uncommon signed.

Publication: New York: Simon and Schuster, 1957.
