87p. + Plus frontis. Color text drawings by James Reid. Designed by Donald E. Cooke. 8vo. Original full decorated paper binding. Very slightly worn at extremities. Limited Edition; but no limitation statement indicating the number of copies. The famous movie that sprang from this book is quite wonderful. Both book and movie are celebrations of the Christmas spirit, heartfelt pleas against the "over-commercialism" (even in 1947) of Christmas, and an examination of faith itself. Fine books from earlier Christmas seasons make great gifts today. CHRISTMAS/W67 x2.
