1923145777London: The Dangerfield Printing Co. Ltd for the Underground Electric Railways Company of London 1923. First Edition. Paperback. Very Good. London The Dangerfield Printing Co. Ltd for the Underground Electric Railways Company of London 1923. Duodecimo 28 pages with numerous illustrations printed in four colours. Colour-pictorial card covers slightly rubbed; small amount of red pencil scribble on the outside rear cover and some slight and inoffensive red colouring-in to the figures on the front cover; a very good copy internally fine. A charming pictorial alphabet book advertising country pleasure outings by public transport in the vicinity of London. The illustrations show two children and their aunt on such an outing with all figures stylised as wooden toys. The alphabet begins 'A is for Auntie who's so fond of Us; That she takes us for rides on the top of the Bus' and continues with rhyming couplets in a similar vein. The letterpress text gives details of return fares to Eastcote Horsenden Hill Ickenham Ruislip Southend South Harrow and Uxbridge together with details of tea rooms and resorts at those destinations. <p>The catalogue record for an example held by the London Transport Museum 1997/13265 attributes the illustrations to Violet Holdsworth. We have traced very few institutional holdings. 'Reg. No. 108-10M-5.4.23' is printed on the recto of the rear cover; we read this as indicating a print-run of 10000 copies.
