or The Roly-Poly Pudding
The Tale of Samuel Whiskers or The Roly-Poly Pudding
F. Warne & Co. Ltd., 1926.
First edition in this format. 12mo. Red paper covered boards with white lettering and circular pictorial onlay. Pictorial endpapers depict 4 different scenes, 18 colour plates, and many line drawings in the text. A very good copy, with some fading to the spine and a little wear to the spine ends, and light foxing within.
This is the first edition of the story under this title. It was previously published as The Roly-Poly Pudding, in a larger format and with cloth covers. This new version is uniform with the other small books. The first three printings of this are impossible to tell apart, but later editions do not have the advertisement for the book under its original title on the verso front endpaper.
