Description
“Roy Rogers and the New Cowboy”
By A. N. Bedford
Illustrated By Hans Helweg & Mel Crawford
Copyright 1953 (1st Edition)
I found this book in a dumpster of the estate of a doctor and her descendants. The home had not been lived in for 35+ years and was left intact. At the time of the auction, the buyers of the toy room did not want most of the contents, so the books had not been in the dumpster more than a day. Before that, I believe this collection belonged to the child, and grandchildren of the doctor, the first of whom was born in 1926 and the last in 1955. The collection was extensive (I saved over 150 books!) and contained many educational and church related books along with coloring books, picture books, and “how-to-draw” books.
This book has colorful illustrations throughout and considering its age, it has the expected wear and tear on the outside without much damage to the covers. The pages are still intact with each other, are in good condition, and are still connected to the binding. Online, this book has sold from $7.99 – $18.75 (including shipping).
