Witch Poems
Notes: Eighteen fairy poems, including "Miss Trust's Incantation" by L. Frank Baum, illustrated from line drawings by the Caldecott Award-winning artist Trina Schart Hyman.
32 pages. 8-1/4 by 9-1/4 inches.
Edition + Condition: First edition? (Holiday House first editions can be tricky to identify—they either don't indicate later printings OR they leave the price off the jacket for later printings). In this case there is no price on the jacket and no statement of later printings. The ISBN is on a sticker affixed to the back cover. I have checked out a number of copies and have not found one with a price on the jacket, so this is likely a first, but I am not positive.
This copy is signed by Hyman on the half-title, and signed copies are uncommon.
Publication: New York: Holiday House, 1976.
