A very good copy of the rare final installment of the Harper & Brothers short lived Playroom Rag Book Series. Artist Jimmy Garthwaite brings John Greene Chandler's classic tale of Chicken Little to life with 7 full color Art Deco style drawings plus the cover art. Chicken little would be the last of the six Harper's Playroom Rag Books, published simultaneously with Lois Lenski's Sing a Song of Sixpence. An unusual sized square 8vo. 14 pages - Pictorial paper mounted on linen covers - Some toning and foxing to the rag paper covers as is usual. Corners on the front cover beginning to curl a bit, small crease to the lower front corner and a 3" scrape to the paper along the middle of the front cover. Overall, a very desirable and quite scarce copy of the 1930 first and only edition of Harper's Chicken Little.
