Beatrix Potter - The Complete Tales and 12 similar items

Frederick Warne Co., UK. 1997 printing. Lovely book featuring the complete works of famed children's author and artist Beatrix Potter of the United Kingdom. Charming glossy water color illustrations about every page, plus glossy ink drawings (see picture). The book handles as new, but unfortunately there is a 3-inch closed tear at the bottom of the front dust jacket flap, and some wear at the bottom of the dust jacket, though there are no further tears or chipping. The rear of the dust jacket has some light tan discoloration near the top. No writing/markings. This is a heavy book, so even at media rate USPS postage, that's a significant charge. Please add 8.75% tax if you're a New York State resident.
