18945083bdBoston: Roberts Brothers 1894. Octavo burgundy cloth & green illustrated boards hardcover illus. frontis. 82 pp. Interior upper hinge broken; binding still sound; light edgewear. Illustrated throughout. From story: Little Tommy sat on the doorsteps before his house one summer’s day and the hot sun streamed down over him in a flood. Tommy was very glad however to be so warm for he was just recovering from a long illness and was so pale and thin that the sun seemed only to put life and strength into him and to do him no harm whatever. The little boy was dressed in a suit of blue clothes just like those of a sailor with anchors of white braid on the shoulders with a large embroidered collar and with trousers very wide at the bottom. On his head was a wide-brimmed straw hat which surely was very unlike a sailor’s hat. Tommy however was not a sailor though there was no knowing what he might be later in life; as yet he had not launched his bark for a voyage of his own but had only been towed along in the wake of larger craft. In one chubby hand was carried a doll-like figure knitted from yarn stuffed with bran and adorned with fierce mustachios like a Spanish cavalier. This was Jock -- Tomy’s constant companion.
